Optical Path Coupling & Capillary Compression
Smart rings rely on reflective photoplethysmography (PPG), emitting green, red, and infrared light wavelengths deep into the palmar digital arteries. If a ring is too loose by even 0.2 mm, ambient ambient room light enters the optical cavity, saturating photodiode sensors and invalidating nocturnal REM/Deep sleep analytics.
Conversely, an excessively tight ring restricts peripheral vascular blood flow, artificially flattening arterial pulse wave shapes and skewing recovery metrics. Ultrahuman Sizing Kits feature exact 3D-molded replicas of our interior sensor domes, ensuring enterprise users experience exact skin compression dynamics before their final hardware allocation is manufactured.
