smartprobox.com/tag/samsung/">samsung has just registered two most interesting patents with the USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office). On the one hand we have the galaxy Glasses, and on the other a peculiar wearable called galaxy ringwhich as its name indicates, looks like a smart ring. According to the patent registered by the South Korean manufacturer, the Galaxy Ring is emerging as a smart device in the form of a ring, which is designed to track, measure, monitor and upload information related to health, fitness and activity. dream.
Galaxy Ring, a health monitor that comes as a glove, literally
Based on the description, we can imagine a device similar in function to a smart band or watch, but obviously in a more compact format, the size of a ring to be precise. Going into details, the patent makes a clear mention of an optical sensor for measuring blood flow (PPG) and also to a electrocardiogram (ECG) sensorso we can already imagine its functions.
Meanwhile, in the field of speculation and rumors, there is talk of very interesting and plausible elements. First of all, the possibility of synchronizing with the Samsung Health application to consult the statistics is mentioned. In second place, could have temperature sensorjust like the one seen on the Galaxy Watch 5.
This is not the first time (and probably not the last) that Samsung has revealed its intentions to enter this market. Since 2022 there are rumors about Samsung wanting to compete with Oura and its wearables, notably the Ring Gen 3.
With all that said, the fact that there is a patent does not mean that the Galaxy Ring is going to be a reality anytime soon, but the possibility does appear at least. Be that as it may, only time will tell if this Samsung project will crystallize or be relegated to oblivion, but we are more inclined towards the first option.
