In recent weeks, Apple has purportedly hired a number of experts in the field of mobile medical sensors while advertising job openings for similarly mHealth-savvy engineers to work on an unnamed product - a product many believe will become the still-mythical iWatch.
On Friday, China’s Electrical Engineering Times reported that Apple's smartwatch will be a full-fledged mobile medical resource that will be able to do much more than originally imagined.
Electronics industry analyst Sun Chang Xu says that Cupertino’s long-rumored wearable device may monitor heart rate and blood oxygen levels. However, “inaccuracy” has caused Apple to shelve plans to add blood glucose monitoring to the device, according to China’s Electrical Engineering Times.
While Apple has given no indication of the iWatch's existence, let alone release date, most industry analysts and supply chain sources believe that this device will be among the new products Apple has promised for 2014.
