Intel showcases smart T-shirts to track user health

Mike Bell, Intel's head of new equipment division, introduced an intelligent clothing platform developed exclusively by Intel in an interview with the first "Code Conference" held by Recode, the US technology media. Bell hopes to use this platform to change people. The traditional relationship with clothing.

“This T-shirt measures the wearer's heart rate very accurately,” Bell said. In an interview, he demonstrated the technology of embedding the Edison module into a T-shirt that can transfer data to a smartphone. Or the supporting application on the tablet, "This module has built-in our Edison chip, so it supports both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi networks. In the future, we may integrate 3G communication modules."

It is understood that this T-shirt displayed by Bell is the result of cooperation between Intel and smart clothing company AiQ. According to Bell, heart rate is only one of the many monitoring functions of the T-shirt, and there will be more in the future. Applications appear on the smart clothing they produce.

“The idea to build this platform is for us to produce hardware products and then let partners develop the corresponding software,” Bell said. “This smart platform will help people have a better understanding of their physical condition. Take precautions against certain diseases. For example, for those who need to be monitored at all times (old people or children), this smart T-shirt can also send the monitored data to the designated email or SMS. Guardians, thus ensuring their safety.

In fact, many companies have entered the emerging field of smart clothing before Intel. The smart body shaping T-shirt from the Canadian startup OMsignal has built-in sensors that measure the wearer's heart rate, breathing rate, respiration, walking steps, movement intensity, heart rate variability and calories burned. The corresponding application then provides reasonable fitness guidance and advice to the wearer after analyzing the collected data. Hexoskin's smart T-shirts can also perform similar functions, helping the wearer to effectively maintain the body's moisture and heat balance. In addition, the University of Minnesota's Wearable Technology Lab has been working on smart apparel technology for many years. Together with the Johnson Space Center in Hughes, they developed smart clothing for astronauts.

For the average user, smart clothing may be the best equipment to help them fully understand the body's data. The question is whether users really care about the data? Or they can still live with satisfaction even if they don't know their heart rate and amount of exercise. So how to analyze and use this data, and ultimately impress consumers is perhaps the biggest problem Intel and other smart clothing manufacturers have to consider.
