PulseOn, a spinoff of Nokia, has developed a heart rate monitoring wristwatch for athletes and fitness enthusiasts to improve how they train and exercise. An optical sensor on the back of the watch detects the pulse through the wrist and built-in algorithms make sure the readings are accurate in different situations. Wireless connectivity via Bluetooth lets the watch send its data to a companion iOS/Android smartphone app that helps interpret the readings, set goals, and keep track of calories burned.
