In the last few hours, however, it seems that Apple is thinking of something truly extraordinary in relation to its Apple Watches of the future. The Cupertino giant wants to act as a trailblazer once again and has filed a new one patent in the United States. Anyone who was wondering what it will be used for, must know that the result will be surprising. Apparently Apple’s watches of the future will be real ones digital assistants in the pool and at the seaside.
The Apple Watch will save users from drowning in the future
What would you think if someone told you that in the future the Apple Watch will be able to detect if a user is drowning? Many might think it is a hoax but this is precisely what the patent filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office is about (USPTO).
Apple’s smartwatch sensors would be trained to determine when the bather shows irregular behavior while in the water. As in the case of an accident or a fall nowadays, even in that case the Apple Watch will send a call for help. Through some very precise parameters present in the new patent filed, we can see how the heart rate monitor and the pulse oximeter can be very useful in determining whether a user is drowning.
