Raleigh, NC Valencell, Inc., has developed a way for many more people to track their fitness and health by providing real-time vital signs and activity monitoring through mobile phone headsets.
Healthy living has seen a global resurgence as people place more value on staying active to live more fulfilling, healthier and longer lives. In this environment, fitness applications enjoy a meteoric rise across mobile phones, gaming and fitness products. It is clear that people value feedback on heart rate and physical activity for optimizing their workout efforts.
Valencell’s patent-pending Healthset® technology monitors vital signs and physical activity through audio earbuds, such as wireless mobile phone headsets, to provide more seamless and practical ways to track performance and fitness. Users simply put on the Healthset® enabled wireless headset, go about their daily routine, enjoy music, exercise or train for a run while Healthset® technologies track heart rate, distance traveled, calories burned and VO2max (aka aerobic fitness). Data is sent wirelessly to devices, such as mobile phones, and websites, where fitness assessments are enjoyed.
Valencell is showcasing its technology through live demonstrations at the International CTIA Wireless I.T. & Entertainment Conference located at the San Diego Convention Center from October 7-9, 2009.
