Overview- First wearable capable of Pulse Transit Time (PTT) detection via a fingertip sensor for on-demand and periodic PTT readings.
- Compact, lightweight design (under 30 g) with medical-grade ECG and PPG sensors for continuous vital-sign monitoring.
- 24/7 health-data tracking: measures blood pressure* (via app), ECG (Lead I)*, PTT index, heart rate, SpO2, stress/de-stress level, sleep and activity metrics.
- Sleep analysis: duration, stages, snoring detection and movement monitoring.
- Activity tracking with built-in GPS: nine sport modes, step count, calories, route maps and performance stats.
- Water resistance to 5ATM, magnetic charging and up to 7 days battery life in power-saving mode.
Built-in ECG and PPG SensorsASUS VivoWatch 5 AERO integrates micro-electrical ECG sensors and optical PPG sensors. Users select the function on the device and place a finger on the face sensor to obtain real-time PTT and SpO2 readings. The device records heart rate at rest, during exercise and in sleep, and provides a de-stress level assessment.
Pulse Transit Time (PTT)PTT is derived from the time difference between ECG and PPG waveforms to estimate arterial pulse transit and vascular condition. The device performs automatic hourly PTT measures and supports manual real-time PTT tests.
- Real-time PTT: place the index finger on the face sensor for 20–25 seconds.
Taking an ECGFor an ECG recording, place the forefinger on the face sensor for approximately 30 seconds. Recordings are saved in the ECG app and can be exported via the ASUS HealthConnect app (PDF) for clinical review. The device provides Lead I ECG traces and holds medical-device certification from the Taiwan FDA (TFDA); regional availability of ECG features may vary.
- ECG recording duration: ~30 seconds for a detailed trace.
- ECG functions and availability vary by region.
- ASUS HealthConnect recommended: Android 8.0+ / iOS 11.0+.
- Not for users under 22. Do not use with pacemakers, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) or other implantable electronic devices.
ASUS HealthConnect & Blood PressureVivoWatch 5 AERO pairs with the ASUS HealthConnect app and follows Software as a Medical Device standards recognized in certain jurisdictions. Blood pressure monitoring is available via the app and may be region-dependent.
Accurate Heart Rate & SpO2 Measurements- Heart rate modes: resting, exercise, maximum and sleep monitoring.
- SpO2: fingertip sensor real-time readings (20–25 seconds) and background monitoring for sleep and stress analysis.
Sleep AnalysisTracks total sleep time, sleep stage distribution, number of tosses/turns, heart rate and SpO2 during sleep, sleep score and self-assessment data to support clinical and wellness follow-up.
Activity, Exercise & GPSIntegrated multi-GNSS chipset provides accurate position, speed, distance, altitude and duration metrics for outdoor activities. Supports route mapping and performance stats without a connected phone and multiple sports modes suited to jogging, hiking and other training.
Fitness DurabilityDesigned for daily clinical and sports use: dust-resistant, 5ATM water resistance (up to 50 m), suitable for swimming. Premium silicone strap and magnetic charging for practical deployment in operational settings.
Smart Health Helper & Features- ASUS HealthConnect: aggregates device data, enables data sharing and provides HealthAI personalized insights.
- HealthAI: personalized health-habit recommendations and management tips based on collected metrics.
- Smartwatch functions: notifications, medication reminders, inactivity alerts and remote camera control via Bluetooth.
Regulatory & Usage Notices- Functions such as blood pressure and ECG may vary by region and regulatory approval.
- Specifications and features may change; consult local documentation for approved uses.
