Dear Garmin-Owners
Certain things are just made for wrist watches! E.g. showing time ;) ... measuring pulse... tracking movement...
But one such thing is missing! (and the Samsung galaxy watches have it). Samsung those many things purely but this one is very logical!
They measure the body composition of its wearer. And in a very clever way:
- Enter your body weight and tallness in the app
- They have 4 electroconductive (isolated from each other) surfaces: 2 on the backside of the watch (touching the wrist skin) and one in each two buttons.
- for the messurement: You have to put the middle and ring-finger from the opposite arm on those two buttons (Start/Stop & Back/Lap) and wait 30 seconds
- the watch is measuring:
- wirst skin to wrist skin electrical resistance (the two on the backside) for determining the skin condition
- the electrical resistance from middle finger to ring-finger (the two buttons) for determining the resistance between small and short (low-fat) body parts
- the electrical resistance from right arm middle finger to left arm wrist for determining final body composition
-> The Result is how much percentage (and kg) is skeletonmuscle, bodyfat, bodywater
I assume every brand (Samsung, Garmin, Apple, Huawai) watch has bloodoxy and pulse and nfc-payment, sports-activity and so on... I assume no issues with patent?
This function would be great for garmin watches!
What do you think? Would you like to have this feature on your garmin watch?
