New wearable devices are helping to promote wellness by helping people understand health issues before they became problems, New York Times Bits reports.
Lark, a start-up based in Mountain View, Calif., makes a wearable sleep tracking monitor that tracks more than 3,000 micro data points each night through a wrist device users put on before going to sleep.
Lark’s software, which runs on a smartphone, then parses through all the micro-motions it has tracked throughout the night and makes recommendations to users.
