oximetry
Apple Watch 6 brings for the first time an oximeter, a new type of sensor that can measure the oxygenation level of the blood, a very important indicator for detecting a serious infection with the new Coronavirus.
Apple Watch 6 has the sensor integrated among the others in the watch, it uses an infrared sensor to detect the level of oxygen present in the blood, a special application in the watch making a measurement in just 15 seconds.
Apple Watch 6 will store in the health application all the readings made automatically, including while we sleep.
Thanks to the oximeter, Apple announced a series of special partnerships for research based on the data taken from this sensor, which will be used in research on the Coronavirus, but also on the flu.
The new blue color
