Plan within Samsung to help us challenge aging while monitoring Galaxy

Samsung Pay it Galaxy watch In addition to daily health, fitness tracking and to the world of preventive care through training personal wellness and the advantage of new blood analysis aims to help people formulate the disease and support healthy aging. I spoke with Dr. Hun Back, Samsung I and Chairman of the Digital Health, to take a closer look at what will happen to the Galaxy watch and how it can change how we think about wearable devices.

“There is a disease, there is cancer, and many other cases that are already preventable,” Back told CNET. “We know that these behaviors are important, but in our crowded life, it is often difficult to preserve them. In Samsung, our mission is to meet people where they are and help support these healthy behaviors in a meaningful way.”

The new tools are expected to appear with the following Galaxy monitoring in July and include an improper blood test that measures antioxidant levels (or carotenoids), evaluating cardiovascular health, training in personal sleep, and evaluating AI with live comments to help you training SMARTER.

“What we really think we can do is bring this data about sleep, nutrition, activity and stress, and give it the context of the user,” said Pak.

While a stunning number of smart watches and wearable devices available to consumers to choose from, Samsung aims to excellence by developing Galaxy monitoring from a negative tracking device to a proactive health screen. The goal is to help people control their health and maintain them in the long run. With more than 68 million people all over the world on Samsung Health, the company hopes to bridge the gap between that short shot of the data collected in the doctor’s office and the ongoing health data collected by Wearable devices This can help draw a more complete image of your health.

Discovery of antioxidants, no need for a needle

Beta -carotene is just an example of many carotenoids that occur naturally, or antioxidants in vegetables such as carrots and sweet potatoes that can help neutralize toxins (free radicals) in the body, According to the National Institute of Health. These toxins – caused by stress, weak diet, smoking and aging – can accumulate over time and contribute to serious health problems such as cancer, heart disease and premature aging. Currently, one of the most common ways to discover the levels of carotene is through a laboratory test by drawing your blood.

With a new feature called an antioxidant index, the following Galaxy watch will be able to measure the levels of carotenoids in the skin immediately without needles or laboratory work. Instead, put your thumb on the back of the clock sensor for a few seconds.

“This is a non -invasive way to see how your diet and your lifestyle can affect antioxidants,” said Back. “We use LED sensors that measure four different wavelengths to detect beta -carotene in the skin. We have verified the authenticity of the readings (from the hour of galaxy) for blood levels,”

On monitoring Galaxy, people will get a degree of “Low” to “sufficient”, with some general directives about customs to improve antioxidant levels. In the long run, Samsung works more targeted than artificial intelligence associated with specific recipes, supplements and nutrition plans.

“If your levels are low, we may suggest more leafy vegetables or sweet potatoes,” said Back. “In the end, we want to link this with personal recommendations through nutrition and recipes training.”

Run

Samsung is also a 12 -minute operating test to help the Watch Galaxy owners create a basic fitness level, from beginners (first level) to ready -made marathon (level 10). Once the evaluation is complete, the watch will create a dedicated training plan to help people reach a specific distance goals, such as running the 10,000 or half race.

You will also get an actual time from Amnesty International coach at the watch to help pushing you to run, similar to the new Apple Buddy feature experiment on Apple Watch. The Samsung coach of artificial intelligence will perform orally directions such as “more difficulty” or “Ease Up”, as well as adapting future training plans based on your performance. With the progress of users, they will do the

This will also help you in the training mode by clarifying how other health indicators have already affecting the watch, such as Vo2 Max, which is a major indicator of public fitness. In the end, these health indicators can be used as training goals instead of just remote goals to draw the training plan.

“While we are targeting more athletes clearly, this will be something that people want to do,” said Back. “This is a humor for what will come.”

Sleep

Pak said that sleep is another basic piece of puzzles in the comprehensive Samsung approach for preventive care, and a major indicator of public health. Weakness of sleep has been linked to dangerous risks in the long run, such as dementia, cardiovascular diseases and obesity.

“A lot of body repair occurs during sleep, physical and mental,” he said.

A new feature called bedtime guidance depends on the current sleep tracking tools in Galaxy Watch, such as sleeping analysis and detection of breathing during sleep, by making recommendations for sleep times and optimal waking up. It starts with a three -day analysis of your sleep habits to determine the unique biological clock rhythm and sleep pressure (also known as sleep debt). From there, the watch provides a dedicated advice to help improve standards such as the total bedtime and energy degree based on your sleep data.

Instead of just sending a public reminder to get 8 hours of sleep, you recommend bedtime guidance with a special sleep window and wake up. The goal is to help you recover from poor or irregular sleep nights and improve vigilance during the day. So, for example, if you have undergone aircraft, this feature (theoretically) can help reduce your sleep debts and restore your sleep schedule again faster.

Galaxy Watch also takes a more accurate training approach through the collaboration in the real world’s inputs collected by the watch and your Galaxy phone and other Samsung devices when available. For example, it may indicate improving your sleep environment by lowering the thermostat or making the room darker.

“We have SmartThings connected to Samsung, so that it can control your environment, things like moisture, temperature or lighting, or even closing the curtains automatically. We also have medical features, such as detection of sleep,” said Pak.

Vascular load measures a strain on the heart

Another new scale is vascular pregnancy, which reflects the cumulative tension on your heart and the vascular system during sleep; Ideally, it should decrease overnight. Pak said that the Galaxy watch uses the pulse wave analysis and optical sensors to track trends in the hardness of the arteries and the comprehensive cardiovascular and blood vessels. These readings are translated into a low scale up to help you understand how behaviors (such as sodium or alcohol) at risk of developing heart disease in the long run.

“Things such as poor sleep, a bad diet, or chronic stress can raise your vascular pregnancy,” said Pak. “This is one of the ways we are trying to make these connections visible in a useful and measurable way.”

Who gets these features, and how much will they cost?

The new features are part of one UI 8 watch, available in the latest Galaxy Watch series that begins this month, through a pilot program (currently limited to customers in the United States and South Korea with the Galaxy 5 or the latest). The vascular load and an antioxidant index are offered as laboratory features, which means that they are experimental and available for premature inspection before their official issuance.

All these features are expected to appear for the first time with the next Galaxy Watch, which we expect to come in July. The availability of each specific feature will often depend on whether your Galaxy monitor has advanced LED sensors needed to operate them. For example, vascular pregnancy and antioxidants will only be available on Galaxy Watch Ultra Then, while the Coach Running feature will require Galaxy Watch 7 or newer.

Pricing is still in the air. During our interview, the company said it explores a distinct subscription model similar to Fitbit Premium or Garmin’s New Connect Plus, which requires a monthly subscription to cancel advanced training features. Ideally, the features will be included for free with the new watch, while old models can reach behind Paywall. We will update this article as soon as Samsung shares more details about eligibility and typical prices.

Samsung’s future health plans

PAK suggested that the visually existing glucose measurement may not be too far. As Samsung continues to explore the uninterrupted medical tests, it is clear that the company sees the wearable devices playing an increasing role in daily health tracking and preventive sponsorship. The goal of Samsung is to make clinical level visions access at home and convert data that can be worn to implementable guidelines before the problem becomes dangerous.

“We believe that wellness is not just one thing,” said Pak. “It is activity, nutrition, mental health and sleep combined.”

Whether everything is working as intended (and whether people actually adhere to it) will depend on the implementation of Samsung. But one thing is clear, Samsung is playing serious to turn your wrist into a real health center.
