Huami Announces Two New Wearable Devices and AI Chip on Third Anniversary of Amazfit Brand - Seite 2

Huami also announced the world’s first wearable processor that comes integrated with an AI neural network with four core artificial intelligence engines — a cardiac biometrics engine named HeartID, plus ECG, ECG Pro, and a Heart Rhythm Abnormality Monitoring Engine (Arrhythmia). The RISC-V wearable processor with AON (Always On) module has an open source instruction set and was designed for ultra-low power consumption.

“The past three years have ushered incredible growth not only for the Amazfit brand but the wearables market as a whole,” said Frederik Hermann, Head of U.S. Marketing and Sales for Huami. “Wearable technology promises infinite benefits, but widespread consumer adoption is often limited by expense. We are making clinical-grade technology and personalized health data more accessible so people are empowered to take control of their wellbeing and establish life-changing health habits.”

Huami has experienced exceptional growth in 2018. As of second quarter 2018, the company grew 54.8 percent year-over-year and secured the number two spot on IDC’s list of Top Five Wearables Companies in Q2/2018. Strong top and bottom line results were driven by robust sales of Amazfit products including Amazfit Bip, which has become the third most popular smartwatch worldwide according to Counterpoint and Amazfit Stratos, which received the 2018 Red Dot Design Award. In the first half of 2018, Huami sold approximately 1.4 million Amazfit products, and revenue generated from Amazfit products and other value added services was USD 76.5 million.

“The launch of our new smartwatches and medical-grade health devices for consumers is another significant milestone for Huami in 2018 and largely confirms what users and reviewers worldwide have been touting from the beginning -- that Amazfit offers the best low-key casual smartwatches around at a remarkable bargain, just like the Casio of the 21st century,” added Hermann.

The new products are available in China for as of September 17th, 2018 and will roll out Internationally later in 2018 as well as early 2019, exact dates will be released later.
