Cutting-Edge Smart Ring Designs

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Nova Has Introduced Two New Smart Rings — the Nova X and Nova Pay

— January 7, 2025 — Tech
Nova debuted two new smart ring designs to its existing line-up. These include the Nova X and the Nova Pay. Each offers distinct features aimed at enhancing convenience and health monitoring.

The Nova X is equipped with a miniaturized OLED display and provides users with real-time access to important metrics such as time, heart rate, and activity levels. Its design combines advanced technology with durable materials, offering a lightweight and corrosion-resistant option for everyday wear. The Nova Pay, on the other hand, integrates Bluetooth Link Payment technology, which facilitates secure payments directly from the ring. Certified by major financial institutions like VISA and MasterCard, this smart ring design enables users to make payments without needing physical cards.

Both devices boast a range of health-tracking capabilities, including sleep and stress analysis, heart rate monitoring, blood oxygen levels, and more. All of these functionalities are powered by Nova's AI-driven wellness platform.
