Samsung Galaxy Watch health technology developments

Overview

Samsung has expanded its wearable technology capabilities through new health-tracking features and device launches.

Initial developments focused on the Galaxy Watch 8, which introduced an ‘Antioxidant Index’. This feature utilizes a BioActive Sensor to perform multi-wavelength absorption spectroscopy via a thumb scan, estimating fruit and vegetable intake by detecting carotenoid absorption.

Following this, Samsung launched the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and Galaxy Watch9. The Ultra 2 is a rugged model designed for extreme environments, featuring high durability ratings for diving and specialized modes like ‘Trail Run’. It also includes a ‘Nutrition Alert’ system for hydration guidance. The Galaxy Watch9 offers a lightweight aluminum design. Both new models leverage the BioActive Sensor to monitor sleep apnea, cardiovascular wellness, and personal health baselines.
