Ringo and Ringo Features and Functionalities
Two variants are expected to be released—Ringo and Ringo Pro. The main purpose of the smart rings is to provide a 24/7 health monitoring capacity to users, tracking their activities, sleep, heart rate, body temperature, blood oxygen levels (Sp02), and menstruation for women.
Two things that are unique to the Ringo smart rings are their hydration levels indicator and body fat metric.
The smart rings also take recovery into account by looking at the user’s previous day’s sleep data, heart rate, blood oxygen, and body temperature. The user gets a score and personalized insights based on how well the body has recovered.

The smart ring maker did not explicitly describe how the rings’ body fat and hydration level measurements work. Based on the released documents, these metrics will be based on ECG, body temperature, and heart rate data.
Ringo and Ringo Pro are not just about health as these rings also have smart interactive features. The smart touch control allows users to control their smartphone from a distance, whether they browse videos, play/pause/switch music, capture photos, or browse the web.
The smart features do not end there as the rings can receive event reminders from the user’s phone, whether it’s an alarm, a birthday, medication, anniversaries, or to-do and calendar notifications.
