Nokia's Eco Sensor Concept

Donna Cusano

Nokia’s Eco Sensor Concept phone popped up recently on a developer blog (Droid’s Sensor Blog).  Some checking indicates that it was developed in 2007 (an eon ago in telehealth time), but what’s interesting here is not the solar power and the environmental monitoring, but the idea of a wrist strap with sensors for motion, heart rate and noise level (!).  There’s an idea here, but it looks like it was left at the side of the road.  It’s still on the Nokia website.
