The Oxa breathing wearable has been launched via a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. The latest product from Swiss company Nanoleq features real-time biofeedback for health metrics like breathing depth and speed.
The Oxa breathing wearable is claimed to be the first wearable dedicated to exploring breathing from several dimensions. It allows the user to understand the effects of your respiration patterns on the body and the mind. The Oxa breathing wearable provides biometric information across a wide range of metrics. Apart from monitoring your breathing speed and depth, the Oxa provides heart rate tracking and sleep monitoring. The wearable is clipped into a specially-made shirt or bra and worn for it to take measurements. Nanoleq has deployed gamification to teach users of the breathing wearable how to optimize their breathing.
The companion app of the Oxa breathing wearable provides practice breathing techniques that could improve overall body functions. The guided exercises accessed through the app are tailored to your specific breathing and health needs. It can also provide visual prompts or soundscapes for deeper relaxation. The device is claimed to be capable of reducing your stress over time.
The Kickstarter campaign for the Oxa breathing wearable requires a minimum pledge of €239 (~ $249). The Oxa sensor, access to the Oxa Life app, and the Oxa Shirt are included in the lowest pledge offer. The earliest deliveries of the Oxa breathing wearable will arrive in March 2023 and availability is across several markets.
