Personalized health monitoring is a dynamic and growing market. The need in this segment is to gather and analyze key medical vital signs to motivate people to improve their health and to detect early health risks.
The challenge is to integrate sensors that measure various vital signs more accurately, but without placing excessive burden on the battery.
Sensors integrated with wearable devices have become an essential tool for individuals to monitor their health and make informed decisions about their lifestyle.
