Apple's iWatch could be launched this year, it could include sensors for monitoring vital functions

  iWatchseems to be the next innovative product to be launched by the Apple company, and the product could reach the market in the next 9 months. Those from Bloomberg cite sources from inside the Apple company, who claim that SmartWatch- would reach the market by 2014. At the moment, the nearly 100 employees who develop it are considering the implementation of: sensors that monitor vital functions, a pedometer that measures steps, and the possible use of a technology that would power the watch using kinetic technology.

Features under consideration include letting users make calls, see the identity of incoming callers and check map coordinates, said one of the people, who asked not to be identified because the plans aren't public. It would also house a pedometer for counting steps and sensors for monitoring health-related data, such as heart rates, this person said. Apple seeks to introduce the device as soon as this year, this person said. Apple has filed at least 79 patent applications that include the word "wrist," including one for a device with a flexible screen, powered by kinetic energy.

  The watch would allow us: to make phone calls, to view the names of callers, to check the coordinates where we are, or to view other types of notifications. Apple would modify the iOS to allow it to interact with these new devices and everything is rushed to reach the market as quickly as possible. Apple has the opportunity to generate up to 6 billion dollars from the sale of an iWatch, according to American analysts, and it seems that 2013 would be the year when Apple will surprise us again.
