Fitbit Labs wants give an answer to all this, comparing different metrics between various training sessions and evaluating variables such as running pace, route conditions and recent sleep patterns.
Thanks to the synergy with artificial intelligence, Fitbit Labs will not limit itself to providing raw data, but will be able to generate insights and connections between different data, thus providing logical explanations and personalized recommendations to improve future performance. This marks a significant milestone in personalized healthcare and wellness, aiming to create a “health worker” (company words) digital that understands and interprets a multitude of data relating to the individual user.
