This is the first smart clothing I've ever tested. It was a real challenge to turn the device on, I even needed help from the developers behind it, but finally I was able to test it during a gym session. HeartIn is a wearable ECG monitor with an automated stress/fatigue level determination and A.I.-based arrhythmia diagnostics. Here is what I learnt: - It's a real puzzle hunt to find the button on the device but finally did after receiving help from the company via email. - It's comfortable to wear and easy to start tracking an exercise. - I have no idea what the analysis means so I will have to ask the company again. :) #themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #medicine #technology #wearable #health #healthy #fromchancetochoice …see more

DeepMind has built a working prototype of a device that can diagnose complex eye diseases in real time, in a major step towards the Alphabet-owned company’s first medical device. "A DeepMind spokesperson said that if the research results in a product that passes clinical trials and regulatory approvals, doctors at Moorfields will be able to use the product for free for an initial period of five years." This is what you get for 1) providing a company with precious healthcare data 2) act as data annotators in the process 3) help in assessing the algorithm's accuracy so it can get regulatory approval. Sounds a bit less than fair to me.

I just tested my eyesight with the EyeQue device. It's attached to my smartphone and can detect my visual acuity (aka 20/20 vision), contrast and color sensitivity. Super easy and fast.

The Curiscope team that develops Virtuali-Tee was kind enough to consider my feedback so now the LED can be turned off on your phone when measuring heart rate.

Few things pain me more than buying something online and leaving the "promo" box empty. It's like ticking something saying " would you like to waste money"

Given its nature, many in policy- and market-circles are tempted to reduce the current Bitcoin rally simply as a speculative bubble. This should not obfuscate the notably-diverse set of reasons – liquidity excesses, debasement and inflation concerns, risk mitigation, institutional mistrust, etc – that is bringing together an unusually differentiated set of holders for speculators to pile on. #bitcoins #bitcointrading #bitcoinnews #bitcoinprice #bitcoin #markets #investing #investors …see more

From the COVID19 Tracking initiative. Only the mid west of the US is seeing a reversal in what is a worrisome surge in Covid related hospitalizations.
