Ultrahuman’s Ring Air continues its rapid evolution with the release of firmware version 2.43.7. This latest update introduces several new features designed to enhance the user experience and provide deeper insights into overall health and wellness.
Nocturnal Respiratory Rate Tracking and Auto Workout Detection
A standout feature in the new firmware is the addition of nocturnal respiratory rate tracking. By monitoring breathing patterns during sleep, users can gain valuable insights into their respiratory health. Irregularities in breathing patterns can be indicative of various health conditions or simply fatigue, prompting users to take necessary precautions.
Complementing this, the Ring Air now boasts automatic workout detection. The device can intelligently recognize and log workouts like running and cycling, eliminating the need for manual input. While this is a welcome addition, many users would still appreciate improved heart rate accuracy during intense workouts, an area where smart rings, including the Ring Air, often fall short.
Enhanced Weekly Reports and a Rapidly Evolving Platform
The updated firmware also brings revamped weekly reports, offering more in-depth analytics and visualizations. Users can now delve deeper into their health and fitness data to identify trends and patterns.
Ultrahuman has maintained a consistent pace of updates for the Ring Air, with this being the latest in a series of improvements in recent months. Just two weeks ago, the introduction of PowerPlugs, a new app store, and Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) detection showcased the company’s commitment to expanding the device’s functionality.
The Future of the Ring Air
While the Ring Air has undoubtedly made its mark in the smart ring market, the landscape is becoming increasingly competitive. With the recent launch of RingConn’s Gen 2 device and other new entrants, it’s reasonable to anticipate a next-generation Ring Air from Ultrahuman in the near future.
The company’s ability to deliver innovative features at a rapid pace positions it well to maintain its leadership in the smart ring space. As the technology continues to advance, users can expect even more sophisticated health and wellness tracking capabilities from the Ring Air and its potential successors.
