Hexoskin, a Canadian startup, recently introduced its biometric smart tee — Ralph Lauren’s doing it too. The newly developed ‘shirt’, aimed at people who are fond of exercising regularly, is equipped with sensors capable of tracking over 3,000 data points every minute. Naturally, given that Hexoskin designed its product with athletes in mind, the shirt’s bread and butter is to gather stats during physical training sessions, although it can also track daily activities such as sleep.
