Wearable device "LVL" which can measure "hydration supply level" for the first time in the world and heart rate, calorie and step count

You can see how the wearable device is "LVL" by looking at the following movie.

In the following, it is written that the hydration level is "Medium (normal)" and that "supplementing water of 19 ounces (about 560 ml) before today's exercise will improve performance by 3 - 4%", Timing of supply and amount of moisture to ingest are to be understood by looking at the smartphone.


"If you replenish water of 26 ounces (about 769 ml) this morning, you can spend 23% better than usual!"


That 's why I am crowded with the water of the cup.
