The brand-new Google Pixel Watch 3 has been breaking barriers since its launch. It is one step closer to introducing a groundbreaking, lifesaving feature in the United States. The tech giant has been working on integrating a feature that monitors heart health with an eye on early detection of atrial fibrillation(AFiB), a condition linked to strokes. Along with this, the watch will gain the loss of pulse detection feature.

Leveraging advanced sensors and AI-driven algorithms, the Pixel watch 3 will be able to monitor users’ heart rhythms continuously. The watch can alert wearers if irregularities, like AFiB, are detected. With an estimated 12 million Americans expected to suffer from AFiB by 2030, this capability could have a wide-reaching impact on public health.

Besides this, Google is also contemplating the addition of a loss of pulse detection feature. During the Pixel watch 3’s presentation, Google showed that this feature can detect if and when the watch wearer’s pulse stops. Upon detecting a loss of pulse, it can instantly call emergency services.

These features are designed to operate seamlessly in the background, providing potentially life-saving warnings without the user’s intervention. Furthermore, Google has recently had a major milestone by obtaining FDA approval for this technology. This will bring the feature closer to launch in the U.S.

The Pixel Watch 3’s health-centric focus adds to its growing array of fitness and wellness tools. If launched successfully, this development may position Google at the forefront of wearable health technology, marking a significant advance in early disease detection and personal healthcare.
