To GoBe είναι μία συσκευή καρπού ειδική να μετράει τις θερμίδες στον ανθρώπινο οργανισμό. Η εταιρία που κατασκεύασε την συσκευή υποστηρίζει ότι το μηχάνημα έχει τη δυνατότητα να μετρά τις θερμίδες τις οποίες καταναλώνει αυτός που το φορά. Η σπουδαία αυτή ανακάλυψη έχει ήδη πολλούς εχθρούς...
Despite the specificity of "workς» του, η πρωτοτυπία του GoBe, δεν εστιάζεται στο λειτουργικό του, το οποίο είναι πανομοιότυπο με αντίστοιχα βραχιολάκια που μετρούν τους χτύπους της καρδιάς, αλλά σε έναν ειδικό αλγόριθμο ο οποίος προσαρμόζεται σε αυτό. Ο εκ των ιδρυτών της HealBe, Τζορτζ Μικαμπερίτζε τονίζει πως οι εξισώσεις που εμπλέκονται στον αλγόριθμο χρειάστηκαν μια δεκαετία περίπου για να τεθούν σε application.
The challenge
Despite this impressive discovery, there are many opponents of the device. More specifically, many medical experts face it GoBe as a big one scam, καθώς θεωρούν πως η λειτουργία software – algorithm may not lead to accurate results.
The fact that the device was not created by one of a colossal company but by HealBe is another reason why the product is not appreciated. But Mikarperitze disagrees strongly with this idea:
"Great ideas don't have to come from big companies. Take Tesla for example. I didn't see the electrics cars be produced by BMW, Mercedes or Chevrolet. Smaller companies show a greater willingness to learn something new and promote something disruptive in the market, he emphasized.
The experiment
At BBC's initiative, GoBe's credibility was tested in an experiment in which Micampiertz himself took part. The results of the experiment showed that Micampiertas consumed 514 calories from 555 which should be the correct indication, with the percentage of accuracy being 85% which was considered to be absolutely positive.
Of the CCS Insight Technology Board survey leaders, Ben Wood, says:
"GoBe can be the Holy Grail of such devices - bracelets," he said, while he concluded that:
"The real big benefits will come if other machines are given the device algorithm"
So far 6,000 tracks have been marketed, with their impressions expected to help if the product is really good to be true.
