The Galaxy Ring, like most health and fitness trackers, has been designed to be able to track, measure, monitor and upload health, fitness and sleep data to the apps you need. Earlier leaks suggested the device could carry electrocardiogram (ECG),
photoplethysmography (PPG), or atrial fibrillation or AFib sensors, along with the more common 24×7 heart rate, SpO2, and sleep tracker.
