Apple, Inc. Reportedly Looking to Add EKG Heart Monitor to Apple Watch
Focusing on health and fitness has yet to unlock meaningful mainstream demand for smartwatches overall, but that isn't going to stop Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) from betting even bigger on health. The Mac maker recently partnered with Stanford Medicine to conduct a research study using Apple Watch, hoping to use the integrated heart rate sensor to collect data on irregular heart rhythms. watchOS 4 also added a feature that notifies the user when the device detects a spike in one's heart rate when not exercising.
Apple might take heart-rate monitoring a step further in future Apple Watch models.
