Omate has unveiled a new smartwatch they have created which has been specifically designed for the “next generation of seniors” and takes the form of the Omate S3 Smartwatch.
The Omate S3 is equipped with a 1.54 inch colour capacitive touchscreen offering users a resolution of 320 x 320 pixels and is capable of running for up to 3 days on a single charge. This extended battery life ensures that seniors do not have to worry about frequent recharging, making it a convenient accessory for daily use.
Features and Specifications
The Omate S3 Smartwatch is not just a timepiece; it is a comprehensive wearable device that combines multiple functionalities to cater to the needs of senior users. One of the standout features is its built-in GPS tracker. This feature is particularly useful for caregivers and family members who want to ensure the safety of their loved ones. In case a senior gets lost or disoriented, the GPS tracker can help locate them quickly.
Additionally, the smartwatch supports 3G connectivity, allowing it to function as a stand-alone device. This means that users can make calls, send messages, and access the internet without needing to pair the watch with a smartphone. The 3G capability is especially beneficial for seniors who may not be comfortable using smartphones but still want to stay connected.
Omate has combined a wearable GPS tracker and 3G stand-alone smartwatch, that has been loaded with a custom Android operating system offering senior users an interface that is easy to use says Omate. The custom Android OS is designed to be intuitive, with larger icons and simplified navigation to accommodate users who may not be tech-savvy. This user-friendly interface ensures that seniors can easily access the watch’s features without feeling overwhelmed.
Health and Safety Benefits
The Omate S3 Smartwatch also includes several health and safety features that are particularly beneficial for seniors. For instance, it has a built-in heart rate monitor that can track the user’s heart rate throughout the day. This feature can be crucial for seniors who need to monitor their cardiovascular health regularly. The watch can also send alerts if it detects any irregularities, prompting the user to seek medical attention if necessary.
Another noteworthy feature is the SOS button. In case of an emergency, the user can press this button to send an alert to pre-set contacts. This feature provides an added layer of security, ensuring that help is just a button press away.
Unfortunately, no information on pricing or worldwide availability has been released by Omate as yet for the S3, but as soon as information comes to light we will keep you updated as always. However, given the range of features and the target demographic, it is expected that the Omate S3 will be competitively priced to make it accessible to as many seniors as possible.
