Citizen’s New Smartwatch Taps NASA Tech To Give You Astronaut Alertness – SlashGear

0

The WearOS-powered smartwatch comes with an Alert Monitor feature, which is bundled within the CZ Smart YouQ app and has been built on the foundation of NASA’s Psychomotor Vigilance Task Test (PVT+). Considered the gold standard for testing fatigue in lab conditions, PVT+ is essentially a reaction-time test that also considers sleep and alertness data for performance analyses. The test serves as an indicator of sleep disturbances and misalignment of the circadian rhythm, which can vary thanks to ordinary things like a full moon.

In scientific terms, the PVT+ test is an evaluation of neurobehavioral changes in vigilance and attention, both of which are influenced by variations in the sleep cycle and regular body clock. Notably, NASA’s PVT+ testing system is also available standalone in the App Store for Apple devices. 

The CZ Smart YouQ system collects a whole bunch of biological metrics such as heart rate data, sleep patterns, activity levels, alertness, and chronotype for deeper personalization. Based on physical activity patterns, the CZ Smart YouQ app suggests actions to help counter the effects of fatigue. Called Power Fixes, these activity recommendations are also touted to boost alertness and the adoption of better lifestyle habits. Depending on how an individual’s habits, sleep cycle, and alertness evolve over time, the power scores will also be adjusted accordingly.
