Wearable Tech to Track Covid Symptoms

The video discusses a medical-grade wearable device developed for remote patient monitoring, initially intended for post-hospital care but adapted for COVID-19. It highlights the device's cost-effectiveness, scalability, and privacy features, emphasizing continuous monitoring of vital signs to detect infections. The device does not track location and transmits data via Bluetooth. It provides insights into asymptomatic cases, suggesting that continuous monitoring can reveal micro fevers, offering a more reliable infection detection method than traditional tests.

How does the technology differ from consumer wearables like Fitbits and Apple watches?

What concerns do people have regarding the location tracking capabilities of the device?

What is the significance of monitoring vital signs continuously rather than at a single point in time?
