Ōura ring – award winning wearable that changed the industry

Oura wanted to create a next-generation Sleep tracker and Smart Ring wearable. The design direction they chose to follow with their new product required very high product integration, the latest technologies, and the use of premium materials. The new product was set to become a wearable design and engineering marvel of its own. Oura needed the support of a design and engineering partner to extend their team capabilities and work seamlessly on their design. To achieve such an ambitious design the Oura team needed to have proactive top experts in every R&D position.

Haltian was chosen as a wearable hardware design and engineering partner to support Oura´s second-generation Sleep Tracker and Smart Ring development. Our collaboration on the first Oura Ring worked well and Oura trusted Haltian´s capability to support their new product development project with world-class software, electronics, and mechanics designers and engineers, not to mention sourcing. The new Oura Smart Ring was a prime example of what great people can achieve working together. Oura had a very clear vision and plan for where to take the product and Haltian supported their product development, providing the required special expertise to various product development phases.

The Oura Sleep Tracker and Smart Ring was a true achievement in wearables design and engineering at the time. After the public launch someone mentioned “Apple-level integration” and we are very happy to say the same. The ring boasts some powerful features in a very compact form factor. Electronics integration was taken to an extreme; promising up to 7 days of battery life with gyroscope-based activity and optical Heart Rate tracking. Wireless charging provided ease of use, yet more processing power and memory delivered better data day in and day out. The medical grade design was water resistant to up to 100 meters and the titanium exterior has a diamond-like carbon coating for better wear resistance.
