THE Hexoskin biometric smart shirt offers information about users’ physical training, sleep and daily activities.
Their product range has now extended to include the Arctic Smart Shirt, touted as the first cold weather biometric smart shirt in the world.
The Hexoskin biometric smart shirt comes filled with sensors, making it an ideal base layer for optimum training in cold weather.
Apart from that, it is also able to provide exceptional heat insulation, true breathability, odour-resistance and fabric pulling and abrasion resistant.
Specially designed for prolonged wear without causing irritation to the skin, the comfort level is similar to Merino wool.
I suppose one can call the Hexoskin biometric smart shirt a wearable precision lab, as it provides users with lab-quality metrics.
There will be a tiny Bluetooth device connected to the fabric sensors and located in the shirt’s built-in side pocket, making regular fitness trackers pale in comparison to it.
Basic metrics such as heart rate, step count, sleep duration and calories burned will be measured but it is also capable of a whole lot more, including measuring heart rate recovery, heart rate variability, breathing rate, breathing volume, activity level, acceleration, and cadence, among others.
Expected retail price at US$199 (RM666).
Available later this month.
