I have been using and loving the Fitbit One for almost a year, I have read about and followed every activity tracker that has ever been announced, and I have pledged for the Kreyos smartwatch and the Amiigo bracelet. I know wearables, very very well indeed. But this Healbe GoBe? It’s the first one that really gets it right in my opinion. (insider-gaming.com)

Most activity trackers are glorified pedometers (Fitbit, Jawbone, Nike Fuelband) and some are tailored towards specific activity recognition (Amiigo, Atlas). In either case, they all guesstimate your calorie spending and require you to manually log your food and water consumption. Some, like the Fitbit, don’t even recognize your sleeping time and you’ll have to manually log that every day.

Wearables should be a lot more simple and a lot more automatic, and the Healbe GoBe manages to pull that off so amazingly well. It’s a wrist-worn tracker that uses its own FLOW Technology through 3 different sensors — pressure, impedance and accelerometer — to calculate your heart rate, stress level, blood flow, hydration level, sleep status, calories burned and calorie intake.

How does it do that last part? By looking at the glucose level in your cells, through your skin. Isn’t that almost like science fiction?

The data is then sync’ed through Bluetooth 4.0 with the Android and iOS apps, where you can see all your graphs, set goals, earn badges, and learn more about your health.

The Healbe Gobe Indiegogo campaign launched only 2 days ago but is already quarter funded. One unit is being offered for $125 including shipping with an estimated delivery of June 2014. Check it out for more screenshots of the apps, more details about the science behind the measurements, and let me know if you are as sold on the concept as I am.
