Teaching and Learning Innovation in Management of Technology and Innovation: Ringgy
Keywords:
Wearable Technology, Emotional Monitoring, Smart Ring, AI Health Assistant, Mental Well-beingAbstract
Ringgy is an AI-powered wearable ring designed to monitor users’ physical and emotional well-being in real time. Equipped with advanced biometric sensors, including PPG and IMU technology, it tracks heart rate, stress, fatigue, inactivity, and emergency incidents such as falls or fainting. Ringgy provides discreet feedback through gentle vibrations and LED indicators, reducing digital fatigue with its screen-free design. The device also features emergency hand signal recognition, enabling automatic SOS alerts and live location sharing via smartphone connection. With water-resistant, energy-efficient, and gender-neutral features, Ringgy supports daily use for professionals, elderly individuals, and wellness-focused users while promoting proactive health and safety management.
