Ford Has Your Heart On Their Mind!

Ford announced that they developed a seat that can monitor your heart. Early detection has always been pounded into everyone's head, so Ford took that initiative and ran with it. They have embedded six sensors that do not penetrate the skin but detects electrical impulses from the heart. This was developed by the Ford team in Ford European Research and Innovation Center located in Aachen Germany. Ford has stated that it can envision the ever anticipated "remote medical services" that provide the imminent "cardiovascular issues such as a heart attack". This is to help with any signs that the driver might not even be aware of, but with early detection, it can save many different horrid outcomes. It almost can be compared to that of a service dog for someone that has epileptic seizures, the dog can detect them quicker than the human. So, with the animal being able to give notice, could eliminate or even just reduce the side effects of such things.

The use of driver's awareness is not the forefront of everyone's top issues but it is with Ford. The Blue Oval believes in safety and knows keeping another eye on the driver is one step into saving lives one at a time. The people at Ohio Ford or Reading Ford, could not agree more, this is going to change things. It could even prevent an accident from happening, if such driver does have a heart attack. Ford is not done with talking about monitoring the driver for health issues. Ford has expressed a monitoring system through the Sync that could assist you with Asthma or Diabetes. Technology that can monitor the breathing or your sugar/insulin levels.

All this good news for the people that have health conditions that they feel sometimes jump in the way of everyday life. Ford has yet to master the exact product and says there is still a lot of work to be done. This type of system will not be found right away at Bradenton Collision Center. They stated that 90 to 95% of testers were compatible with the system. So, their system was able to monitor the consumer's pulse with noting it was 98% of the time accurate when the driver was behind the wheel of the vehicle. This is where innovation meets needs of everyday consumers just trying to live normal lives. Ford taking one step at a time assisting the ones they value the most....the consumers.
