The launch of the Apple Watch 2 is fast approaching, the Apple company is going to bring the second version of the smart watch to the market sometime in April, if it follows the strategy established last year.
Because the product is in development now, Apple has published four job offers for biomedical experts and technicians who are eager to join the research and development team producing the Apple Watch 2 for worldwide release.
These experts are to be integrated into the team that develops devices for health monitoring, where a variety of biomedical experts and engineers specialized in the implementation of biometric sensors in wearables are already working there.
Apple tried to implement in the Apple Watch only functions that do not require the device to be verified by the American authorities and to receive the certification of a medical device, so it is limited in the biometric functionality it can offer.
And since October, at least five people with medical research and development experience have joined Apple, according to a review of LinkedIn profiles. ... over the last three or so months, Apple has snapped up employees from the medical world, according to LinkedIn.
Despite this, Tim Cook stated that Apple could also develop medical devices in the future, and these employees made now could contribute to bringing those devices to market, but for now no one knows what plans Cupertino has in this regard .
Over the past three months, Apple has hired multiple people from the biomedical field for its wearables teams, some of whom work at startups that develop wearables that offer biometric functions, so it will be interesting to see what Apple has in store. .
