The Apple Watch is a capable device that can detect a variety of health-related symptoms. With the Apple Watch Series 6 model, the wrist ECG feature came. According to a new study, it turns out that the Apple Watch can accurately determine stress levels with various metrics.Researchers at the University of Waterloo in Canada suggested that the Apple Watch can predict the user’s stress level.
EKG sensor used
As a result of the measurement made using the ECG sensor of the Apple Watch 6, it was seen that the increase in heart rate and slowing down were closely related to the stress level. The researchers then developed and applied machine learning algorithms to build the prediction model.
According to research, Apple Watch shows promise in detecting stress levels. In addition, the smartwatch can measure stress with greater precision by collecting information about the wearer’s health, such as sleep and activity information.
Apple Watches still don’t have built-in stress tracking; It is unclear when the stress management feature on the clock will come. On the other hand, third-party apps such as Gentler Streak, Training Today, and Stress Monitor for Watch report how stressful a day is based on daily heart rate data.
