Lava Pulse became the world’s first push-button telephone with heart rate and blood pressure sensor
The Indian company Lava has presented an interesting novelty – a mobile phone called Pulse, which can now be purchased for only about $ 20.
Pulse is said to be the world’s first push-button device to feature a heart rate (HR) and blood pressure sensor. The corresponding sensor is integrated into the navigation button below the screen: to take readings, just put your thumb on this area – the measurement result will be displayed on the display. The data can be stored in memory or sent via SMS to, say, the attending physician. The novelty is focused primarily on the older generation, which needs to regularly monitor these indicators.
The novelty is equipped with a 2.4-inch QVGA screen with a resolution of 320 × 240 pixels and a rear camera with an unnamed sensor. There is a Bluetooth controller, FM tuner with recording function, microSD card slot, and Micro-USB port.
The phone is enclosed in a plastic case. A rechargeable battery with a capacity of 1800 mAh is responsible for power supply, the charge of which will last for six days of operation. Installation of two SIM-cards is allowed.
