Innovations in wearable devices
Минулого року Huawei відкрила Huawei Health Lab. Лабораторія здоров’я є джерелом наукової інформації, необхідної для створення сучасних пристроїв для спорту та здорового способу життя. Вона має дві експериментальні зони: в одній за допомогою 25 видів випробувань тестують надійність усіх розумних носимих пристроїв. В іншій встановлено понад 20 випробувальних стендів для збирання даних. Вони використовуються для оптимізації алгоритмів, що аналізують якість виконання вправ і стан здоров’я користувача. Тільки продукти, які успішно пройшли тестування, виводяться на ринок і доступні споживачам. Тут тестувалися головні новинки минулого року від Huawei — розумні годинники Watch GT2 Pro і Huawei Watch Fit.
