Shillong, July 31: Tech giant Samsung is reportedly working on a smart ring called the ‘Galaxy Ring’ expected to be launched next year.

The ring is being developed in collaboration with domestic and international component manufacturers to ensure its success. The key feature of the smart ring is its ability to collect detailed body and health data through built-in sensors, which can be viewed on a connected smartphone.

IANS reported that the ring can be adjusted for accurate data collection based on the user’s finger size. However, there are challenges to address during development, including potential issues with weak blood flow or overly tight fittings affecting data accuracy. Samsung is also exploring the possibility of integrating the ‘Galaxy Ring’ with XR (mixed reality) devices, leveraging its XR technology to track users’ head and hand movements.

A recent discovery in the Samsung Health beta app suggests that the company may also add support for third-party smart rings in addition to the Galaxy Ring.
