RE: Let’s talk about Chemical Sensors in Wearables — hype or real breakthrough?

Got it. So it’s not exactly replacing finger-prick tests anytime soon. What about stuff like cortisol or hydration tracking? Feels like that might be …

RE: Let’s talk about Chemical Sensors in Wearables — hype or real breakthrough?

This is super interesting. I get the idea in theory, but how accurate are these chemical sensors really? Like… can sweat actually reflect blood glucos…

RE: IMU-only tracking: good enough, or fundamentally broken?

Interesting. So would you say future wearables are more about sensor fusion than better sensors?

RE: IMU-only tracking: good enough, or fundamentally broken?

Jumping in here — when you say “IMUs need help,” how minimal can that help be? Are we talking full optical systems, or can something dumb and cheap …

RE: Can self-powered pressure sensor technology utilizing triboelectric and piezoelectric effects be used in wearables?

Got it. Then what about piezo sensors?They sound way more “well-behaved.” Why aren’t those everywhere in wearables already?

Okay, this is interesting — but I’m still a bit confused.If triboelectric sensors have insanely high voltage, why can’t they just replace normal press…

RE: Have you heard of self-powered wearable sensor technology that generates electricity simply by moving, without batteries?

Got it.So basically: “big power devices = not happening yet,”but “sensor-only wearables = totally becoming battery-free soon,” right?
