Tim Cook, the president of Apple, announced in an interview today the implementation of new functions for Apple Watch, they will provide biometric monitoring for the users of the smart watch sold by the American company.
Cook believes that Apple products can improve the health of users who use them all over the world, and the Apple Watch would provide them with warnings that could save their lives in certain situations in which they would not even realize.
Cook compares the new functions to those of a car that tells a driver to stop because the engine has overheated, the Apple Watch will have equivalent functions for those who exercise, this function will be based on the analysis of biometric data taken from the user .
If you drive for a while and your car gets too hot, it says pull over. If you need an oil change, it says check your oil. What's the equivalent for the body? We believe health is a huge issue around the world and we think it's ripe for simplicity and a new view.
Tim Cook claims that the Apple Watch can be able not only to improve the lives of the wearers, but also to extend their lives through the functions it offers, the statements being quite strong for a device that now does not do very intense biometric monitoring.
The holy grail of the watch is being able to monitor more and more of what's going on in your body. If you could have a device that knew so much about you, it would be incredible, and would extend life and extend quality. I'm not saying one device will do all of that.
It has been speculated that the Apple Watch 2 will not only monitor heartbeats, but will also do other types of monitoring with the help of new sensors, but for now there is no additional information compared to what Tim Cook indicates in his statements.
