Wearable health

14 products · augments physiology · 12 with sourced capabilities

This category is where augmentation stops being a convenience and starts being medicine: patches, bands and clips that record what the body does when nobody is looking. The products here range from consumer fitness bands to prescription-grade monitors, and the difference between them is usually not the sensor but the regulatory path and the software that reads it.

What is counted here

Wearable devices that record a physiological measurement over time and publish a product page a buyer can read.

What is not

Clinical devices sold only to professionals, one-off thermometer apps, and general fitness trackers whose only measurement is step count.

A product belongs to exactly one category. Where a device could sit in two, we file it by what it does most of the time — and say so on its page.

How to choose between them

  1. 1

    Separate "measures" from "diagnoses". A device that records an ECG is not the same as one cleared to interpret it.

  2. 2

    Wear time is the real specification. A patch you replace weekly produces different data from a band you charge daily.

  3. 3

    Look for what the maker publishes about accuracy. If there is no number, there is no evidence.

Questions this category raises

Are these medical devices?
Some are, most are not. Where a maker states a regulatory clearance we show it; where we could not verify one, the page does not claim it.
Can I use the data with my doctor?
That depends on whether the product exports raw data. It is worth checking before buying — several consumer devices only show a score.

Other things a human can augment

Sorted by what the device augments, not by what it costs. Every product card links to the maker's page; every claim on a product page links to the sentence it came from. Catalogue state: 14 published products in Wearable Health, last read 31 Oct 2026.
