Oura Ring adds VO2 Max and Cardio Effort tracking

Oura Ring has introduced two new features to enhance its cardio fitness tracking capabilities. The first is Cardio Effort, a metric that assesses the strain placed on the body during activity and categorizes it into five ranges. The second update allows Oura Rings to automatically estimate VO2 Max, a measure of cardiovascular health, without requiring a manual walking test. These additions aim to make the Oura Ring a more competitive option against other wearables like the Apple Watch and Fitbit by offering more comprehensive health data. AI

IMPACT Enhances health tracking capabilities, making Oura Ring more competitive with other wearables.
