新奇事件簿 谷歌卫士

Google is playing catch-up to Apple and Samsung in the race to be market leader in wearable health software. The tech giant is working on a device called Google Fit to rival Apple's HealthKit and Samsung's Galaxy¹ Gear 2 and the Galaxy Gear Fit. Sources say the company is working overtime² to launch its product so it is not left behind. Google is hoping to be the first company to provide a device using the Android operating system. This is Google's second foray into this market. The first product was called Google Health, which did not gain traction³ with consumers as it did not offer the kind of information fitness enthusiasts⁴ and health buffs were after.

谷歌正设法在可穿戴式医疗软件的市场竞争中赶超苹果和三星公司。这家科技巨头正致力于研发一个名为Google Fit的设备来与苹果的HealthKit和三星的Galaxy Gear 2、Galaxy Gear Fit竞争。消息说，公司加班推出产品,来避免自己落后。谷歌希望成为提供使用安卓d操作系统设备的首家公司。这是谷歌第二次进军这个市场。第一个产品被称为谷歌卫士，但是没有获得消费者的青睐, 因为它没有提供健身爱好者和健康爱好者这类信息。

An industry insider revealed what Google Fit might look like. They said it would be a wearable device that measures bio-rhythmic data like the number of steps someone walks or runs, or heart rate. This information will be linked with Google's cloud-based services. The company is trying to keep further details of the final product under wraps. The TechCrunch website wrote: "From what we're hearing, Google Fit will track all sorts of health data, such as weight, heart rate, run times, body-building stats and more." It added: "End users will be able to sync their Google Fit profiles to their Google IDs, which will make their data portable no matter what app or device they're using."

一位业内人士透露了谷歌卫士的样子。他们说，这将是一个可穿戴设备，可以测算生物节奏的数据，例如走路或者跑步的步数、心率等。这一信息将与谷歌的云计算服务结合。该公司正秘密地进行最终产品的进一步的细节。TechCrunch网站写道，从我们所听到的来看,谷歌卫士可以追踪各种健康数据,如体重、心率、运行时间、健身数据等等。”它补充道，终端用户能够将谷歌卫士档案与他们的Google ID同步。无论他们使用什么样的应用程序或设备，健康卫士都能实现用户数据的便携性。
