In China, Huawei has unveiled its latest innovation in health tracking, the HUAWEI TruSense System, marking a significant milestone in the world of health and fitness technology. This new system promises to bring accurate, science-driven advancements to users, setting a new standard for digital health monitoring.
Huawei has a longstanding presence in the wearable tech industry, having entered the space 11 years ago. To date, the company has shipped over 150 million wearable devices and boasts more than 520 million users of its Huawei Health app. According to the International Data Corporation (IDC), Huawei ranked first globally in on-the-wrist wearables shipped during the first quarter of 2024, maintaining its position as the leading wearable brand in China for five consecutive years.
Speaking at the launch event, Mr. Rico Zhang, President of Huawei’s Smart Wearable and Health Product Line, emphasized the significance of this new system. “HUAWEI TruSense is a major breakthrough for us in health and fitness sensor technology and will keep us at the forefront of technological development in this space. This digital health advancement will further help users pursue healthier lifestyles,” he stated.
As global consumers become increasingly health-conscious, the demand for comprehensive and accurate health monitoring solutions has surged. Huawei’s response to this demand is the HUAWEI TruSense System, a digital health and fitness paradigm defined by six key characteristics: accuracy, comprehensiveness, speed, flexibility, openness, and iteration.
To achieve unparalleled accuracy in continuous vital sign monitoring, Huawei invested significantly in optical, electrical, and material science research. The goal was to overcome the challenges posed by various factors such as skin tones, wrist sizes, and weather conditions, which can affect sensor performance. As a result, the accuracy of basic indicators like heart rate, SpO2, and blood pressure has been certified by authoritative industry bodies.
The HUAWEI TruSense System goes beyond standard health metrics, measuring over 60 health and fitness indicators across six of the body’s major systems. It also includes an emotional wellbeing component, utilizing sensors to monitor heart rate and autonomic nervous system data. This data is processed by an algorithm to provide an assessment of the user’s emotional wellbeing and stress levels, promoting both physical and mental health.
The system’s flexibility, openness, and continuous iteration allow partners from around the world and across the digital health ecosystem to contribute to the future of health and fitness technology. Huawei has already collaborated with over 150 partners on pioneering research in areas such as remote healthcare and family health management.
Looking ahead, Huawei is committed to staying at the forefront of health and fitness science, with more innovations set to enrich users’ lives. The first products powered by the HUAWEI TruSense System will be available for purchase in September, with further details expected soon.
