- Zepp Health says its OS is more user-friendly, better suited for watches and better able to leverage the value of wearable devices.
- The OS will focus on sleep, heart rate, ECG, blood oxygen and other health aspects, plus a new blood pressure algorithm, the company said.
The current OS for wearables is generally based on Android, but Android is not designed for wearables after all, and efficiency and applications must be overhauled to accommodate, and the specialized WearOS has been de facto abandoned by Google.
Zepp Health has hinted that it will launch a new generation of Huangshan chip, expected to be named "Huangshan 2S", adding a separate GPU, which will have a new look in terms of graphics performance and experience.
The new Huangshan chip is the first to use a dual-core RISC-V architecture for more computing power and lower power consumption, according to Zepp Health CEO Huang Wang.
In 2019, Zepp Health released the world's first artificial intelligence chip "Huangshan 1" in the field of smart wearable, which is applied to AMAZFIT Mydo Health Watch and AMAZFIT Smart Watch 2, integrating heart biometric recognition, ECG, ECG Pro, and heart rhythm abnormality monitoring engine.
In June 2020, Zepp Health Technology released the Huangshan 2, which is claimed to be perhaps the world's best wearable chip.
Using RISC-V architecture, it has high computing efficiency, low power consumption, and is seven times faster than Huangshan 1 in recognizing atrial fibrillation.
Huangshan 2 has a built-in C2 co-processor, which can record health data 24 hours a day even after the main chip is turned off, theoretically reducing power consumption by 50 percent.
