The Movano Ring has medical ambitions.

The Oura Ring is not the only smart ring on the block. The Movano Ring is a health tech company's attempt to help people monitor chronic illnesses and better understand their data.
The basic metrics will be measured by the Movano Ring, including heart rate, heart rate variability, sleep, respiration, temperature, blood oxygen levels, steps, and calories burned. Movano says it will distill how your metrics relate to each other to take a more proactive approach to mitigate the risks of chronic disease. The Movano app can tell you how your exercise habits affect your sleep patterns.
More makers are shifting away from steps and calories in favor of simpler scores and insights. The Oura Ring and other companies use scores to tell you whether to push yourself or take it easy on a given day, but they mostly focus on telling you whether to push yourself or take it easy on a given day. They are accompanied by graphs and lengthy descriptions that can be overwhelming. Movano wants its insights to be more actionable. The way the data is presented is more understandable than many trackers out there.

The way in which the data is presented is much easier to digest than similar data on other Wearables.

The Movano Ring has a few things that help it stand out. The device is slim and not hideous. The device was designed for women of all ages and the emphasis on a sleeker design was a deliberate choice. That is notable in two ways. Wearable tech has historically favored masculine styles. The Oura Ring and the Motiv Ring have been on the chunkier side. It is difficult to miniaturize sensors with current technology, but they are less suitable for small hands.

There is still a huge gender gap in medical data. Congress mandated that women and minorities be included in clinical trials in 1993.
While most companies shy away from questions about FDA approval, Movano is candid about its medical ambitions. The goal is to eventually get Class II designation and add medical features like cuffless blood pressure in a "step-by-step" manner over time, according to Mastrototaro. The company is conducting clinical trials to gain FDA clearance for its technology and is also conducting accuracy studies to gain FDA clearance for heart rate, SpO2, and respiratory rate monitoring. Wearable tech, including Apple and Fitbit, have been rumored to be working on features that will allow for non-invasive blood pressure andglucose monitoring. Bringing them to a smart ring would be an accomplishment.

If this ever gets to market, it will be a big win for smart rings.

Wearables that promise medical features end up in regulatory limbo. The Withings ScanWatch made its debut at the Consumer Electronics Show in January 2020, but it wasn't until November of that year that the FDA cleared it for sale in the US. It was announced earlier, but still has not received clearance. It took several years for the HeartGuide to clear. It often means that companies end up choosing between making a consumer device that is accessible to the average person or a medical device that is not accessible to the average person. Mastrototaro says that Movano has decades of regulatory experience.
Mastrototaro said that they were taking the regulatory side of things very seriously. He pointed to his long history in developing medical devices, including the first continuous glucose monitor, as well as that of his staff. Mastrototaro says that experience gives Movano an edge in navigating the FDA's notoriously opaque clearance process.
The Movano Ring won't be available until the second half of 2022. Mastrototaro says the company aims for it to be one of the most affordable on the market.
We are aiming for both a medical and consumer focus, as opposed to one or the other. Mastrototaro says that they want to have a device that looks and feels good and is affordable. Mastrototaro is talking about the holy grail of tech. The Movano Ring is one of the more ambitious takes on smart rings that we have seen in a long time.
