But it tracks your sleep, it tracks your stress and recovery.
And there's none of that kind of clunky buzzing and notifications that you get from your smartwatch.
So it is focused entirely on passive data collection, and it literally just weighs less than two and a half grams.
But it does real-time recovery and stress tracking, no screen notifications, no distraction, built-in skin temperature sensor, so monitors early signs of illness or fatigue.
And you own your data, no recurring monthly subscription fees, and six days of battery life, which is something, say, that you certainly don't get from an Apple Watch.
Yeah, and these are also, I mean, we're really seeing more and more of these products.
Therabody, many of your listeners will know them.
They make really good massagers for kind of post-workout massage, that kind of stuff.
But this is a blackout sleep mask that uses heat and vibration and a massage pattern tailored to your heart rate.
So the idea is it melts away headaches or screen-induced stress.
They cost about 200 euros.
You'll find them all over the country.
I've seen these in loads of electrical retailers.
therabody have what they call smart sense technology and it's a tiny sensor that sits against your temple it reads your pulse and it adjusts the massard vibration to actively lower your heart rate and there is there's a few different modes there's a focus and a smart relax and a sleep mode but matt they're really really cool you can fully fold them and put them into their little case so you can take them on a long haul flight and you can also connect them by bluetooth to the therabody app
So you get this sort of guided sound therapy.
So I think if you're a frequent flyer or a heavy screen user or you suffer maybe from tension headaches after work, that kind of thing, really nice way to decompress.
This is just a really cool little thing that caught my eye.
I saw this at a show recently, and it's a really nice smart bedside lamp and sound machine.
And it uses a very gentle simulated sunrise alarm.
And I, like many people in the country, use my smartphone as an alarm in the morning.
