These days clothing can have all kinds of technology built into it. Now lingerie brand Victoria’s Secret has jumped aboard the wearable tech bandwagon too. They are selling a new sports bra for about $75. What is so special about this bra is that it comes with integrated electrodes which will hook up to a heart rate monitor.
One could argue that the watcher rather than the wearer could use the heart rate monitor since we are talking lingerie. Anyway, the integrated technology is hidden from view, making the bra aesthetically pleasing compared to some of the wearable tech we’ve seen.
This Victoria’s Secret sports bra will not come with a built-in heart rate monitor, it just has a pair of electrodes that will hook up to your skin, enabling a heart rate monitor to be connected to the other side. In other words, the heart rate monitor is sold separately. They say that the electrodes will fit “most clip-on heart rate monitors from leading brands”. Hopefully they see fit to give ladies a full compatibility list so they can make a good purchase. This would be good for workouts if you want to see what your heart is doing.
