Now, Google has developed a biometric-tracking apps for Google Glass that will estimate physiological parameters of a wearer. However, this headgear is now embedded with an Android app, BioGlass to track the stress level of user. Notably, the researchers at Georgia Tech and MIT have asserted that they have invented this new method by considering different combinations of sensors to measure corporal signals.
As per the reports, apart from projecting directions and e-mails in front of your face, now this head mounted wearable device will measure bodily indications. By tracing heart and breathing rates, it will quote that how strained the user is.
In the pursuance of the sources, this head-worn will ferret out and record the data by monitoring wearer’s body movements. Discussing about the working, the gadget is paired with accelerometer, gyroscope and front-facing camera, which will only capture data for even a tiny activity.
After this the a custom Android application, BioGlass will take over all the information from the above mentioned built-in devices of the Glass in order to get a range of physical parameters and the user could get instructions on stress-relieving breathing exercises.
Noticeably, there are some plenty of challenges for this next-generation headgear of Google. Hither, the biggest question comes in mind that will it give an accurate reading during big motions, such as walking around? which is still need to be examined by the scientists.
Here, it has been claimed that device will avoid a ton of health problems and will warn you, when you're literally frazzled. But, it may be difficult to persuade people to purchase Google Glass because it has a price tag of $1,500 that is 15 times more costly than most of the fitness wearables.
