What Is a Smart Ring?

A smart ring is a next-generation wearable health monitoring device designed for unobtrusive, all-day wear. Weighing as little as 3g, smart rings provide continuous tracking of vital health indicators with higher precision than traditional wristbands or smartwatches.

Key Features:

✔️ 24/7 Health Monitoring (heart rate, SpO₂, sleep stages, body temperature)

✔️ AI-Based Health Insights & predictions

✔️Cross-device Integration with apps and health platforms

✔️ Ultra-lightweight design ideal for sleep, exercise, and daily wear

The global smart ring market is expected to exceed USD 5 billion by 2027, with a CAGR of over 28%, driven by growing health awareness and demand for discreet yet powerful wearable solutions.
