Huawei announces TruSense System for accurate health monitoring

HUAWEI TruSense System has been announced. This  system marks another step in bringing accurate, science-based health and fitness tech to users. Huawei entered the wearables space 11 years ago and, to date, has shipped over 150 million wearables and secured more than 520 million users for its Huawei Health app. 

“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,” said Rico Zhang, the president of Huawei’s smart wearable and health product line.

Consumers around the world are more health conscious than ever before, and this has created demand for convenient, comprehensive and accurate monitoring capabilities. Huawei’s response to this demand is a system that integrates all of the company’s advances in vital sign monitoring — HUAWEI TruSense System, a new digital health and fitness paradigm that’s defined by six key characteristics: accuracy, comprehensiveness, speed, flexibility, openness and iteration.

To ensure the long-term accuracy of its continuous vital sign monitoring, as well as deliver faster results, Huawei invested in optical, electrical and material science research, with the aim of overcoming the challenges that different skin tones, wrist sizes and weather conditions pose to various sensors. The accuracy of basic indicators such as heart rate, SpO2 and blood pressure has been certified by authoritative industry bodies.

HUAWEI TruSense measures more than 60 health and fitness indicators, covering six of the body’s major systems, and also includes an emotional wellbeing component. Sensors monitor the user’s heart rate and autonomic nervous system data. This data is fed into an algorithm that produces an assessment of the user’s emotional wellbeing and stress levels, to help users enjoy the benefits of both a healthy body and a healthy mind.

The flexibility, openness and ongoing iteration of HUAWEI TruSense System empower partners from every corner of the world and every part of the digital health ecosystem to participate in shaping the future of health and fitness technology. In this domain, Huawei has collaborated with over 150 partners on research in areas ranging from remote healthcare to family health management.
