Apple Iphone will now take care of your heart


Apple Iphone generally allows you to make calls, receive calls, hear a song and find way to your destination but that’s not enough for today’s technology oriented world.

Now Apple Iphone turns into a heart monitor and fitness tracking system. Apple Iphone can work as your personal trainer , you can also listen to your heart.

A Technology firm called iTMP Technology Inc has developed SM Heart Link, which will work as “wireless bridge” which in turn will work as a data collector(such as heart beat, chest strap, cycling sensors on bike) and sending these details to your i phone.

Now, what does an iPhone do with these data ?…

Iphone sends this information to the medical assessment websites. This work flow can be done in such a small fraction of time that you will not even notice it .

“your calorie expenditures are broken out between fat and carbs and they are based on our metabolic data not population- based tables.” , said Michael Williams, CEO and Founder of iTMP Inc

As far as it’s cost is concerned, it doesn’t look cheap. Most applications for Iphones are free or come at very low costs but this module will cost $155.

Take care of that heart of yours. :)
