Sports bra designed to test the heart rate

Numetrex has introduced a sports bra that reads heartbeat and sends signals to a wrist-mounted computer or wears around the waist of a wearer.

The bra has sensors attached inside the fabric. These sensors will pick up the wearer's heart rate and transfer the heartbeat signals to a transmitter mounted in front of the shirt. This receiver then calculates the heartbeat and displays on the solar watch the wearer wears on his wrist so that he or she can track it.

Numetrex says the bra will help remove the entanglement that runners and cyclists often have to carry to check their heart rate.

Long ago, electronic fabric textures, such as wearable computers or LCD lenses, were mentioned in future technology talks. Over the past few years, a number of companies have begun to turn this idea into reality.

The fabric used in Numetrex's bras is made by Textronics. The fabric that this company develops can conduct electricity and have the same properties as lycra fibers. The Numetrex bras are the first commercial use of Textronic fabrics.

Similarly, the British manufacturer Eleksen has invented another fabric that is also conductive. This fabric does not contain wires and is almost identical to the raincoat. This fabric has been used to make some products such as the keyboard can be rolled into a tube and a ski shirt with the ability to play MP3.

Triage Wireless uses a patch to check the blood pressure and other symptoms of the patient. The information collected will be sent over the mobile network to physicians. In addition, earlier this year, Triumph also introduced a bra that keeps the wearer warm.

Numetrex plans to sell the sports blazer to the market for $ 45. If you want to buy a set with a Polar clock and a transmitter will pay $ 115.
