Vital Jacket review¶
Product Overview¶
The Vital Jacket is a comfortable and easy-to-wear T-shirt that combines the latest textile technology with a built-in heart monitor. By allowing to do a continuous and noninvasively Electrocardiogram (ECG) acquisition combined with heart rate measurements, the device enables physicians to evaluate possible heart conditions when the user performs some sort of exercise.
