We’re seeing a lot of interesting and innovative products during the latest
Withings’ Omnia is one of those products that isn’t ready for the commercial market yet. The firm presented it as a concept product with impressive features. We may never see Omnia as a platform available to the general public. However, it’s exciting to think about some—or all—of the technologies integrated into it making their way into a product that people can access on a regular basis.
Withings’ Omnia is a conceptual smart mirror focused on health
The brand says that Omnia is “not just a product — it’s a transformative experience that reimagines digital health possibilities.” It’s a mirror integrated into a scale that combines your weight data and a 360° full-body scan to yield key information about your current physical status. This includes parameters such as body mass index, heart health, and lung health, among many others. The device would be compatible with external data processing that would make its summaries about your health even more precise. It could obtain your nutritional, physical activity, and sleep data from a wearable, for example.
Every modern big tech product integrates artificial intelligence, and Omnia is no exception. The health-focused mirror from Withings would have an AI-powered voice assistant that could give you tips, advice, or even motivational talks. Omnia would also be able to act as a “portal” to carry out virtual consultations with your family doctor. The product could send all your collected health data to facilitate professional diagnoses.
Its arrival on the market is not certain
As previously stated, Omnia might never make it to the commercial market. Even if it did, all the technologies it integrates would probably make it a rather expensive product. Anyway, let’s hope this isn’t the last time we hear about such a concept. It could be an ideal motivator to never miss your daily training sessions.
