The device is designed to collect body and health data through built-in sensors, which can then be synced to a connected smartphone.

‘Galaxy Ring’ Focuses on Body

A key feature of the ‘Galaxy Ring’ is its ability to gather body and health-related information through in-built sensors.

The ring’s adjustable fit allows users to customize it according to their finger size, enhancing data accuracy and minimizing potential errors caused by loose fitting.

However, development hurdles include addressing issues related to weak blood flow or excessively tight fitting, which might impact data accuracy.

Even if mass production gets the green light, the certification process for obtaining medical device status is expected to take 10 to 12 months, possibly causing delays in the product’s availability to consumers.

Samsung plans to integrate the ‘Galaxy Ring’ with its XR (mixed reality) device.

This integration aims to leverage the XR device’s cameras and sensors to track users’ head and hand movements, adding new dimensions of functionality to the smart ring.

Earlier this month, a Reddit user noticed a “feature list” in the Samsung Health beta app, version 6.24.1.023, that mentioned “ring support.”

There are two possibilities: Samsung may be considering adding support for smart rings made by other companies to the Health platform,

or it might indicate the company’s plan to release the ‘Galaxy Ring’ and offer compatibility with third-party rings.
