Amazfit has become a partner of the Arctic Floating University’s “Changing Arctic” expedition, which will take place from June 24 to July 15. Its participants will study the environment and human adaptation to the conditions of the polar latitudes using the latest Amazfit T-Rex 2 smartwatch.
The Arctic Floating University is a unique project created on the basis of the Lomonosov Northern (Arctic) Federal University. Every summer students, graduate students and young scientists who are interested in researching the Arctic region gather in Arkhangelsk. This year they will go on a jubilee expedition to the northern seas on the ship Professor Molchanov.
The main theme of the event this year was the impact of the Arctic climate on human health. Participants will have to find out how the body adapts to the Arctic, what physiological and psychological disorders can be provoked by work in extreme northern conditions. In addition, ecologists and biologists will go on an expedition to explore the flora, fauna and soil of the polar islands.
Along with standard research tools, young professionals will be assisted by devices. Amazfit provided the expedition members with the latest smartwatch model – T-Rex 2. This is a novelty of 2022, which was designed for use in extreme conditions – it is ideal for outdoor activities, travel and expeditions.
Amazfit T-Rex 2 will help scientists collect important information about the health of the expedition members, recognize the body’s meteotropic reactions and explore the adaptive reserves of the human body.
“Our task on this flight is to assess the ability of the human body to adapt to changing environmental conditions. The main indicator we focus on is heart rate variability. This method of assessing the functional reserves of the body is widely used in screening studies in preventive medicine to identify latent and early forms of the disease,” said Anna Trofimova, deputy head of the expedition team for research.
Amazfit T-Rex 2 will allow study participants to monitor all important functional indicators in real time, such as heart rate and blood oxygen saturation levels, as well as monitor their physical activity.
An optical PPG sensor with 6 BioTracker photodiodes is responsible for collecting data on the state of the body in the Amazfit T-Rex 2 smartwatch, which provides round-the-clock monitoring of heart rate, respiratory rate, blood oxygen saturation level and stress level. All four indicators can be measured with just one click of a button.
Finally, Amazfit T-Rex 2 can operate at temperatures down to -40°C and maintain heat resistance at temperatures up to +70°C. The smart watch is resistant to water, snow, freezing rain, dust and shocks, can work on a single charge for more than three weeks, and GPS navigation, which allows the device to be positioned using GPS, GLONASS, Beidou, Galileo and QZSS, will help you accurately orient yourself in the open sea and on land.
Amazfit hopes that young scientists will be able to carry out all the planned research and draw important and useful conclusions.
