Pixel Watch 3 Finally Getting Loss of Pulse Detection Feature in the Us
The Pixel Watch 3 is set to receive a new health and safety feature called Loss of Pulse detection, which can detect primary cardiac arrest, respiratory or circulatory failure, overdose or poisoning, and alert emergency services for prompt care. The feature was originally announced in 2024 but has finally received necessary approvals from the US FDA and will arrive at the end of March. This adds to the watch's existing health and safety features, which include Car Crash Detection, ECG app, and Fall Detection.
- The integration of Loss of Pulse detection into the Pixel Watch 3 highlights the evolving role of wearables in providing critical support for users' health and well-being, potentially reducing response times in emergency situations.
- What implications will this feature have on the broader healthcare industry, particularly in terms of remote monitoring and telemedicine services that can be enabled or augmented by wearable technology?
