TomTom has announced a new range of sport orientated smartwatches, the TomTom Runner Cardio and the TomTom Multi-Sport Cardio.
Both of these new sports smart watches are designed to measure your heart rate without the need for a chest strap, instead the device uses and optical heart rate sensor.
The Runner Cardio makes it easy to train in the optimal heart rate zone. Runners can select one of five intensity zones to match their training goals and will receive alerts to know whether they need to speed up or slow down. Runners can see real-time heart rate, distance, pace and other essential running information at a glance, while running.
“Once again, TomTom is making innovative technology accessible to everyone,” says Corinne Vigreux, managing director, TomTom Consumer. “We know that heart rate monitoring is the single most accurate way to understand how the body is responding to exercise. Now, with the launch of the Runner Cardio, all runners can easily use heart rate training to improve their performance.”
