Tanita RD-901: the ultra-complete smart health connected scale
It is now common, scales are enriched with IoT technology which gives many smart health connected scales on the market. One of the latest and not least the Tanita RD-901, a complete product that has many features.
After more than 70 years of existence, the health product manufacturer Tanita is one of the largest manufacturers of scales. The company that designed the first mass body mass analyzer in 1994 uses its knowledge to launch itself into a rapidly expanding market: smart health connected scales.
RD-901 the Rolls-Royce of smart health connected bathroom scales?
The company decided to offer a high-end product sold for around 200 euros. But at this price, the terminal is able to measure plethora of data : weight (precision to 50 grams), silhouette evaluation, body mass index, muscle mass, bone mass, visceral fat, basal metabolic rate, metabolic age, body fat and hydration rate. In short, a whole program. Obviously, the machine has the Bluetooth and synchronizes with a mobile application for smartphone and tablet. On the design side, it is rather original with two wrists on the sides, glass and a touch screen. Only small regret perhaps, the absence of a wall screen, often present on models in this price category.
How it works ?
To carry out all these measurements with maximum precision, the Tanita balance uses a technology called “Dual frequency bio-impedance”. Concretely, a weak electrical signal (which you do not feel) is sent in the body of the user and crosses all the water contained in the various muscles of your body but not in the fatty tissues contained inside. This is how the Tanita RD-901 can give so much information.
The smart health connected scale is on sale around 200 euros with two choices of colors: white and black.
