Apple Working On A Device That Can Predict Heart Attack

 

After iPod, iPhone and iPad, Apple is now working on a device that can predict heart attack.

Rumours have been around for quite some time that Apple is exploring medical devices and automobiles in 2014. Although there is no such report that can validate the rumour about Apple’s inclination towards automobiles, a recent report by the San Francisco Chronicle, however, strongly backed the rumour about the medical device.

According to the San Francisco Chronicle report, Apple is working with audio expert Tomlinson Holman, the inventor of THX and 10.2 surround sound, to launch a heart attack prediction device.

This device will work on the sensor technology and will focus on the sound created by blood while circulating through the arteries. And as it sounds, it’s clear that this device should be in contact with the body. The device is probably indicating towards the rumoured iWatch, the upcoming wearable device by Apple. However, there is no such mention on the report by the chronicle.

The report also mentioned about the recently held closed-door meeting between Apple and Tesla but nothing much is known about the meeting, its agenda or what all discussions they have had.

But so far the medical device is concerned, there are even reports that Apple has hired Mercilo Malini Lamego, a medical-device expert and also that the company is working towards releasing health-focussed Apps for iOS.

After going through the news, I genuinely feel that if Apple can successfully launch this device - so called iWatch - then this will not only be a new milestone for the company but also a great and impactful step towards preventing heart attacks and saving lives.
