Health Monitoring Now Even More Precise with HUAWEI TruSense System Enhanced with Distributed Super-Sensing Module and Fingertip Detection
Huawei Has Monitoring of Your Vital Signals Covered with Enhanced HUAWEI TruSense System
Huawei today announced the latest upgrade to its pioneering health and fitness innovation, the HUAWEI TruSense System, now enhanced with the new Distributed Super-Sensing Module. This advancement represents a major leap forward in science-based, precise, and comprehensive health management solutions, setting a new industry benchmark following the HUAWEI TruSense System’s successful debut in 2024.
With these upgrades, the enhanced HUAWEI TruSense System now integrates fingertip detection capabilities with multimodal signal fusion, extending its monitoring reach from the wrist to the fingertip, an industry-first aimed at improving accuracy. It also combines wrist and fingertip detection, enabling rapid and accurate measurement. This breakthrough upgrade was developed to meet the growing global demand for more proactive, real-time health management.
Latest innovations ensure Huawei continues to lead wearables industry
Huawei entered the health and fitness business 12 years ago and continues to lead the global market. IDC’s latest data[1] places Huawei in the number one global rank in wrist-worn shipments for year-on-year growth. Notably, Huawei ranks first in shipments in the global wrist-worn market below US$700 (excluding tax) and has been ranked first in smartwatch shipments in the Chinese market for six consecutive years.
Globally consumers are more health-conscious than ever before, driving demand for convenient, comprehensive, and accurate monitoring capabilities. Huawei’s response to this demand is a system that integrates all of the company’s latest advances in vital sign monitoring. With the 2024 launch of the HUAWEI TruSense System, the company is driving a new shift in digital health & fitness that’s defined by six key characteristics: accurate, all-around, fast, flexible, open, and iterable.
HUAWEI TruSense measures more than 60 health and fitness indicators, covering six of the body’s major health systems, including circulatory, respiratory, nervous, endocrine, reproductive, and muscular. Amongst the indicators is an emotional well-being component, which debuted in the HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 Series and the HUAWEI WATCH D2. Sensors monitor the user’s heart rate and autonomic nervous system data and then feed this data to an algorithm that assesses the user’s emotional well-being and stress levels – helping users enjoy the benefits of a healthy body and a healthy mind.
All-new Distributed Super-Sensing Module
The latest update to the TruSense System is a pioneering new Distributed Super-Sensing Module, combining wrist-based and fingertip sensing to deliver significantly enhanced health insights. The module utilises optic, electric, acoustic, and mechanical signals, integrating these multi-modal inputs to dramatically improve the accuracy, speed, and comprehensiveness of health monitoring.
The newly announced Distributed Super-Sensing Module builds on last year’s Super-Sensing Module, which professional institutions have already recognised for its accuracy in monitoring key health indicators such as blood oxygen, heart rate, blood pressure risk evaluation, and more. Huawei has overcome previous space limitations resulting from space constraints at the bottom of the watch, so it can now monitor different parts of the human body. It has deployed more powerful and diverse sensors in a distributed manner.
A significant feature of the upgrade is that it enhances sensing capabilities by coordinating data collection from both the wrist and other human body parts, for example, the fingertips. With the fingertip’s naturally dense vascular structure and thinner skin surface, interference from melanin and hair is significantly reduced, offering a unique edge in certain scenarios, particularly cardiovascular monitoring. By using these additional physiological data points, the system captures richer signals across more scenarios, delivering faster, more precise, and more comprehensive health insights.
As a result of the upgrade, blood oxygen measurement speed has seen a significant improvement, now capable of detecting changes in real-time, marking another substantial step forward in response time. The comprehensive health snapshot feature, Health Glance, now assesses over 10 vital indicators in just 60 seconds. This rapid assessment includes three newly added health metrics for users, namely Heart Rate Variability (HRV), emotional well-being, and ovarian function assessment, delivering a more complete, timely, and user-centric health monitoring experience.
HUAWEI WATCH 5: More details to be announced in May
Huawei remains dedicated to pushing technological boundaries in digital health. With ongoing research in advanced health monitoring technologies, the popular HUAWEI WATCH 5 will soon include the enhanced HUAWEI TruSense System. Users can look forward to the new future-forward smartwatch release in Berlin on May 15, 2025.
