Basis Reveals An Awesome New Affordable Heart And Health Tracker You Can Wear On Your Wrist

b1-perspective_col_SM1After raising $9 million in venture funding from Norwest Venture Partners and Doll Capital Management this year, Basis Science has been able to continue their year-long research and design development of a new affordable heart and health monitor that can be worn all the live-long day right on your wrist. In anticipation of its showcase at Health 2.0, the startup is today revealing the design and features of its so-called B1 Basis Band that will launch on the market later this year. While there are a number of health-tracking devices on the market today, the Basis Band seems poised to be a disruptive product in the health space. Priced at $199, the heart and health tracker consists of multiple censors that measure heart rate continuously, along with calorie intake, sleep patterns, and other physiological metrics. What's more, the Basis Band boasts an LCD touchscreen interface that allows for easy navigation and even displays the time and date -- making it potentially a pretty amazing replacement for your measly wrist watch.
