Stress Tracking: What the Trend Means to Device Manufacturers

Technology is making it easier than ever for devices manufacturers to create solutions that enable consumers to better manage their health. Information that once took appointments with specialists in controlled environments can now be obtained nearly anywhere through wearable technology and other mobile devices equipped with ECG biosensors. Specifically, consumers are trending heavily toward devices […]

Managing Stress & Tracking Progress With ECG Sensors

As our lives become busier and busier, stress will continue to play an increased role in our day-to-day routines. Stress can have an impact both physically and mentally, and while a little stress can be healthy (after all, it is the body indicating that some sort of action has to be taken), prolonged levels of […]

Stress Tracking & Trends in Wearable Devices

Prolonged periods of stress are well known for having negative impacts on individuals, as well as those around them. One thing we know for certain is that stress doesn’t “just happen”; rather, it is a non-specific response to a demand for change from the body or mind. This is why the ability to track stress […]

Size Matters: Benefits of Using The World’s Smallest, Most Integrated ECG Biosensor

As advancements in technology continue to be made, we’re seeing wearable and mobile devices become increasingly compact. This is especially significant when it comes to our ECG biosensor, the CardioChip. At only 3mm x 3mm, the CardioChip is the world’s smallest ECG biosensor. Not only that, it’s also the most integrated, which makes it an […]

Stress: A $300 Billion Cost to the American Economy

Stress is a factor in the lives of everyone, and in small doses it can actually be a good thing. The problem is that many people experience prolonged stress, which can lead to a variety of unhealthy outcomes. As a matter of fact, according to the American Institute of Stress, stress costs the American economy about $300 […]

Quantifying Stress With ECG Sensors & Algorithms

Being aware of what triggers stress and how to combat those triggers is one of the most important things a person can do to live a healthier lifestyle. Stress is not something that anyone can live without, but it is something that can be managed through the interpretation of quantifiable data obtained from wearable and […]

How Do ECG Algorithms Help Device Users Track Stress?

Wearable and mobile device technology is quickly emerging as the premier way for consumers to track their stress levels on a day to day basis. Thanks to devices enabled by ECG biosensors, users are able to obtain accurate data over time that is essential for identifying stressors to be able to combat them effectively. Of […]

Why Should the Average Person Track HRV?

Not long ago, tracking heart rate variability (HRV) was considered to be an incredibly difficult task, relegated to doctor’s offices and other controlled training facilities. That has all changed with the rise of wearables and other precise tracking devices enabled by ECG biosensors. In this post, we’re going to provide a better understanding of just how […]
