How a smart ring works

In the world of technology, there are more and more innovations that change our perception of familiar things. Innovative smart rings are becoming not only a stylish accessory, but also an important tool for tracking health and lifestyle.

Here's What We Know

The smart ring is based on the use of miniature sensors that collect a large amount of data about the user's physical condition and environment. In particular, the ring is equipped with a photoplethysmography sensor to measure heart rate and blood oxygen levels, an accelerometer to track activity and steps, and a gyroscope to accurately detect movement.

Thanks to their small size and miniaturised components, smart rings are ideal for sleep tracking. They are also equipped with an electro-skin activity sensor that measures the user's stress level and emotional state, and a peripheral oxygen saturation sensor to assess blood circulation.

To interact with other devices, smart rings use Bluetooth and NFC technologies, which allows them to transfer data to a smartphone and provide users with a number of additional features, such as one-touch payment and digital access control.

According to experts, the future of smart rings promises more accurate tracking of the user's physical condition, blood pressure, and blood sugar levels. Gesture control and interaction with the smart home are also expected to improve.

With new models, such as the soon-to-be-launched Samsung Galaxy Ring, we expect further development and improvement of this technology.
