Samsung launches wearable health care platform Simband

Samsung releases wearable health care platform Simband Beijing time May 29 Morning news, when Samsung announced that it would hold health-related media activities in San Francisco on May 28, everyone believed that the company wanted to rush to launch a health-related product at Apple at the Global Developers Conference (WWDC). Launch similar products. But in the end, although Samsung did release a new health wristband, it was not ready for sale for a short time. Samsung has dubbed the Simband's Fitness wristband an investigative device that can help the company integrate sensors and other electronic components with software and services to create future digital health technologies. Unlike previous gear smart watches, Simband is a platform open to other businesses. Samsung briefly demonstrated the Simband feature at the conference, but did not provide much detail. The product is very similar to the existing smart watch, with a square shell and a large color touch screen, with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules to monitor heartbeat and oxygen levels. As the wristband integrates some electronic devices, it requires better use of space, and the product is equipped with a shuttle battery that can be recharged without taking off the wrist strap. Samsung Electronics President and chief strategic officer Sun Yingquan said they want to be able to achieve all-weather standby equipment in the future. Samsung also discussed the Samsung Multimode Architecture Interaction (hereinafter referred to as Sami) system at the Simband press conference. This is a cloud computing service that can store data collected by electronic devices such as Simband. Like Simband, Sami is an open platform. Samsung has also stressed that users will still be able to control the variety of information it stores. Samsung says it will open the Simband platform to developers later this year and hopes to increase more complex functions such as blood sugar monitoring in the future. Although consumers cannot buy simband, the whole idea of the platform is expected to strengthen the attractiveness of wearable health devices. In fact, Simband's most interesting feature is its openness. Whatever Apple is offering, it will be the biggest difference between Samsung and Apple. It also suggests that Samsung wants to portray itself as a world-class innovation enterprise, not just a successful cottage company.

Samsung also said at the conference that the company would work with the University of California, San Francisco, in digital health care and would invest 50 million of dollars in the next generation of health technology companies. If Simband and Sami do provide a base of equipment and services for a range of external businesses, these two technologies are expected to become a health-care android--shared by all companies outside Apple. Yet it is too early to draw a conclusion. But it's really a concept with a lot of imagination, and there's no doubt that Samsung will wantBefore Apple advances medical and health technology, it takes the lead. Woodman)
