Pulse Oximeters are an essential hospital tool and serious athletes rely on them to track the efficiency with wich they pump oxygen into their blood stream. Masimo’s new iSpO2 puts these rather important health metrics within reach of the consumer by tying the sensor to your favorite iOS device through an app. The device, available now for $249 through Amazon, feeds your blood oxygen level, pulse rate and perfusion index (the rate of blood flow to your finger) to an easy to read app. In addition to just large raw numbers, the app also offers a history tracking graph, along with a confidence rating for the reading — so you know when the data coming in and out is reliable. The device itself is primarily light soft touch plastic and rubber, with a slightly glossier clip that goes over your finger. At the opposite end of the device is the standard 30-pin connector for plugging into your old-school iOS devices. Though, frequent upgraders will be happy to hear that lightning adapters work perfectly fine with the iSpO2. Primarily the monitor is aimed at athletes and aviators who tend to find themselves in unpressurized aircraft. Though, there could be general health applications for those with chronic circulation issues or other blood-related health problems. The sensor even works when under stress from constant movement — an important feature since Masimo expects runners and hikers are expected actually wear the device when active. For a bit more, check out the gallery below and the video after the break.
