Huawei is pushing the frontier in health technology in wearables. Earlier this month, a tip surfaced online hinting that the brand’s new blood pressure monitoring tech on wearables would launch in September. But it seems like Huawei is working on other health tech innovations as well.

Huawei’s Trusense system just announced enhancements in its sensing modules, detection algorithms, and big data models. But what does this mean for you? Well, the company is working on technology, which could allow it to detect respiratory issues just by listening to your cough. So here’s a quick glimpse at what the future of wearable looks like.

1. Smartwatches may soon listen to your cough

Huawei said that there are two key advancements in wearable health technology. The first is an industry-first respiratory health research. The Chinese tech giant has collected samples of different couch sound types and physiological data like respiratory rate, heart rate, and other parameters and run them through their algorithm, which can detect lung infection risks.

It can even run chronic obstructive pulmonary disease risk screenings and lung function assessments. All of this is enabled by Huawei’s Trusense on wearables, which can listen to your coughs. The company guarantees the accuracy of respiratory health monitoring via its software and hardware innovations.

2. New Vascular Health & Risk Screening Tech

Similar to innovations in respiratory health mapping technology, Huawei is also aiming at “filling the gap in cardiovascular health”. It is developing high precision sensors along with improved software that can identify critical vascular health indicators. So blending cutting edge hardware and software can help detect cardiovascular risks that a user might face.

3. What is the Huawei TruSense System?

To put things simply, Huawei is pushing the boundary of wearable health technology. This is showcased in various ways like advancements in sensing modules, improved detection algorithms, and big data models for better health monitoring. So TruSense has broadened the horizon in exploring areas like coronary heart disease, mental health, blood pressure, and blood glucose monitoring.

4. Collaborations with Industry Experts

Huawei Wearables and Huawei TruSense system are actively working on a project with EU’s leading cardiovascular research initiative, which is iCARE4CVD. It even includes top industry academics and institutions along with a total investment that exceeds 20 million Euros over five years. Huawei is also leading patient management topics and is the sole wearable device manufacturer involved.
