Movano Health's 2024 CES Innovation Honoree
Ships This Month
LAS
VEGAS, Jan. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Evie
Ring from Movano Health (Nasdaq: MOVE), the market's first
women-focused smart ring, is redefining the wearable
category with a unique band design, female-specific data
interpretation, and AI-based trend analysis that goes beyond raw
activity scores to improve users' ability to understand and manage
their health. Evie earned a 2024 CES Innovation Honoree Award,
begins shipping this month, and was showcased over the weekend
at CES Unveiled in Las
Vegas.
Grounded in the latest research related to women's biometrics as
well as interviews with more than 1,000 women to determine what
they want in a wearable, the Evie Ring and companion app were built
from the ground up to provide a smarter, more user-friendly,
women-focused experience. Groundbreaking features include:
- Smarter form factor. Evie is the first smart ring
designed with a small gap in the ring surface and slight flex in
the scratch-resistant metal to accommodate daily fluctuations in
finger size due to hormonal changes and other variables, ensuring a
comfortable fit at all times. Additionally, Evie's charging case is
portable and can recharge the ring up to 10 times on one charge for
easy on-the-go use.
- Smarter sensor. The Evie Ring utilizes highly sensitive
medical-grade sensors to optimize vital sign measurement on women's
fingers, which tend to be smaller and have less blood flow than
men's. Brighter and more efficient LEDs that emit more light
improve the quality of the optical signals, yielding higher
accuracy and better repeatability with less battery drain.
- Smarter metrics. In addition to the individual activity
and performance metrics provided by other wearables, Evie includes
an industry-first Daily Summary that aggregates each day's
activities and recovery into a single graphic for at-a-glance
understanding of that day's performance. The Daily Summary also
dynamically displays the user's progress toward her pre-set goals -
again, in a single snapshot - and uniquely includes credit for
factors such as getting enough sleep.
- Smarter data analysis. Evie leverages newer studies that
consider women-specific factors such as hormonal changes combined
with a custom AI engine to search for correlations across menstrual
health, mood, energy, sleep and activity. Whether it's "We've
noticed your mood improves when you get 1000 more steps than your
average" or "Your sleep may be interrupted during this phase of
your menstrual cycle due to a dip in progesterone," these insights
can help users modify their behaviors to optimize their daily
routines.
- Smarter pricing. The Evie Ring costs $269 with no subscription fees, keeping costs low
over the life of the wearable. Evie also is eligible for HSA/FSA
fund reimbursement.
Other key features include a unique Spot Check function
enabling users to see their pulse rate and blood oxygen levels at
any time day or night; the ability to log mood, menstrual symptoms
and other information that is then combined with vital sign data to
help users understand how they're feeling; and four days of battery
life.
New features to be added over the next several months include
enhanced menstrual health insights and additional
visualizations of menstrual data that leverage Evie's AI
engine to shed more detailed light on links between a woman's
cycle and mood, energy, sleep and activity; My Health Report
enabling users to share key data ranging from sleep patterns and
heart rate variability to spotting frequency with their healthcare
provider; and automatic activity detection as soon as the
user begins running, walking or biking without needing to log the
information in the Evie app.
Evie is also planning to support Android devices
beginning in Q2 2024. The ring and companion app are
currently compatible with Apple's iOS.
"The Evie Ring is much more than a fitness tracker. It's
essentially a health coach with medical-grade functionality, from
the sensors we use to collect vital sign data to the fact that it's
built in a medical device manufacturing facility that meets FDA
standards," said John Mastrototaro,
CEO of Movano Health. "Add the focus on the nuances of women's
physiology, and it's truly a game changer in the wearable
space."
The Evie Ring is available exclusively at
www.eviering.com in gold, rose gold and silver finishes and in
sizes 5-12 with an optional complimentary sizing kit for those who
don't know their ring size.
