BERLIN — Tracking your health and fitness without going to the doctors is a reality thanks to wearable devices, fitness trackers and smartphone apps. At Berlin’s IFA conference, Philips showed off the latest set of sensors and trackers you can take home to keep an eye on your health.

A Philips health watch is one of the new devices in the range of gadgets that record data on your health and sync together with an online platform, giving you feedback through your phone or tablet.

The watch, which is currently at the prototype stage, is planned to track your heart rate, the number of steps you take, and daftar sbobet indonesia how you’re sleeping. Philips reckon the low-powered monochrome screen will help the battery to last up to four days. The watch is expected to go on sale in April 2016.

Other devices include an upper arm blood pressure monitor and a smaller portable wrist-worn blood pressure monitor.
