What’s UP With Your Health?

by Tom

The UP system from Jawbone, consisting of a sensor-filled wristband, will combine data that it records about the amount of sleeping and moving you’ve been doing with information you provide it about what you’re eating, and give you little ‘nudges’ as to what you can do to feel better and live healthier. All aided by your smartphone as you would imagine. Fascinating technology, not available yet but nice review on ReadWriteWeb. Wait until they make this into a game.  A lot of smart people think that the next big thing will be incorporating our portable technology into health care in such a way that individuals are empowered to monitor what is going on with themselves as well as making it easier for physicians to diagnose and treat because all of the extra data that can be collected continuously.
