The world’s first continuous heart rate monitor sport watch that accurately records heart rate continuously without a chest strap, even at performance speeds up to 12 mph.
Originally launched as a
Kickstarter project in June of this year, the ALPHA garnered rapid, overwhelming support, surpassing its initial $100,000 goal in just a few days and racking up more than 1,300+ backers, 2,000+ units pre-sold and more than $320,000 in sales during the six-week campaign. This early success landed the MIO ALPHA on the pages of Runner’s World magazine, Triathlete.com, RunningwithToys.com and Competitor.com, as well as
TechCrunch.
Designed for runners and cyclists who want to track their heart rate but don’t want to wear an uncomfortable chest strap, ALPHA’s intuitive two-button functionality is simple to use and provides easy access to workout timers, continuous heart rate display, and both at-a-glance and audible heart rate zone alerts for optimum workout efficiency and effectiveness. ALPHA also tracks last-run statistics including total run time, average heart rate and time spent “in zone” for target heart rate.
A built-in
Bluetooth® Smart transmitter feeds real-time data from ALPHA directly into iPhone and Android apps to track and graph performance data over time. With all the “heavy lifting” of data collection and analysis conducted on the smartphone, the ALPHA maintains a simple and sleek interface that makes measuring workout effectiveness fast and easy.
ALPHA’s advanced electro-optical sensors detect blood volume in the wrist as it pulsates with the rhythm of the heart. An onboard motion detector and built-in noise filtration software compensate for the natural arm movement of walking or running that typically interferes with the signal in most other similar devices. By virtue of its advanced industrial design and sensor engineering, ALPHA displays and records accurate heart rate even during motion-intense activities.
