Xiaomi launches IHealth, a control system of health that has nothing to do with Apple
The name seems to offer us a clue that consist the set of applications and gadgets that will launch the Chinese company Xiaomi, but nothing is further from reality. iHealth has just taken over the shape of the typical name and products for iPhone and iPad, taking advantage of the pull and perhaps, confusing buyers.
It is a company that has created Xiaomi after investing $ 25 million to buy a company called Andon Health, which allow to create a series of applications and gadgets designed to monitor and measure some health-related parameters such as blood pressure and heart rate .
To make it count with a bracelet like the one used by doctors and pharmacies to take the stress, plus a port that serves as the basis for connecting the bracelet and collect the data extracted from the measurements and send them to mobile.
It is expected that this device is easy to use, designed especially its use by seniors and people with little knowledge about the methods of use of smartphones. The distribution of this device is limited to China, although it says it is quite reliable and can be very useful.
The Chinese will be able to access it from about 33 dollars, a fairly low price that certainly makes it a very popular and useful device in the Asian country. The problem with this gadget is its name, which has wanted to introduce the idea that is designed by and for Apple item and created some discomfort.
The American platform also has a similar system, called HealthKit, curiously omitted from the initial in the name, which has taken Xiaomi for your device "i". As with Apple, they may share the results of measurements with family, friends and doctors, if the user wants so, improving communication with health centers.
