Rumors: Apple's health monitoring headphones
2014 is the year of health focused smart devices. From smartphones to fitness gadgets, almost any device out there has some type of health tracker. Apple is trying to wrap it all up with medical tracked under the shape of basic headphones.
It's obviously that the American giant is working on a new iPhone, allegedly the so-called iPhone 6. What's cool about the device is the fact that it will be able to track heart rate, blood pressure and other important health parameters with the help of headphones. It appears someone got hold of some leaked information about these smart inner headphones.
Intel has already designed and sold inner headphones that can track the hear rate of any fitness enthusiast or pro. However, Apple is going big on it. Allegedly the American giant hired a health monitoring expert from MIT to help design the ear-worn device.
Tech enthusiasts estimated the smart inner headphones could arrive along with the new iPhone or the new iOS 8 with rumors say it will have a major focus on health care. Whatever the case may be, how cool would be to listen to your favorite music and at the same time work out and monitor major health parameters. It's out of Sci-Fi movies.
