That’s your body’s EDA response, if you will, and so our sensor can detect that.”ĮDA is electrodermal activity, and it increases if you sweat, which may happen if you’re feeling more stressed.

if you’re up in front of a big group giving a speech, or you’re about to do something you’ve never done before. “These are like tiny changes in the electrical activity on your skin . “We have a new world’s first sensor that measures electrodermal activity,” he told me.

On top of that, we added the ability to alert you if your resting heart rate is abnormally high or abnormally low.”įitbit Sense’s third area of focus is a world first, Yang says. “We can get multiple paths going and do better error rejection, and make sure we get our most accurate heart reading. uses multiple paths of light sensors, of LED sensors to be able to get a better accurate read, especially as you’re exercising, as the watch moves around on your wrist,” Yang says. But Yang says the Fitbit went above and beyond a simple ECG. The heart health component is a bit of a catch-up: Apple Watch has had heart monitoring and ECG (electrocardiogram) support for some time now. That’s data you won’t get from an Apple Watch.

The health one is fairly obvious during Covid-19, and as my wife pointed out, women's ovulation cycle includes temperature variations. This is likely helpful in terms of workout intensity, but it also provides health and cycle insights. The Fitbit Sense includes a thermometer which tells you how hot you are.
