What if there was a health tracking device that you swallow?

Smart watches and fitness bands can be cumbersome and unstylish. Instead of wearing one of these devices, why not put them in an ingestible package? From inside of you, it could probably track more health metrics than from a wrist worn platform. When it gets to the end of your digestive track, you would just take a seat on a toilet equipped with an automatic cleaning and recovery module. Or, all of the devices could be collected for refurbishment at the water treatment plant.

    I am absolutely not swallowing one of those more than once.

      yet you’re likely drinking treated water for a sewage based water treatment plant and eating grain based foods with allowable percentages of fecal matter and insect chunks. lol

      A spray of hot water and some UV out to do the trick. Think about the planet.

        If you thought about the planet you wouldn’t be using smart devices at all, especially not completely unnecessary ones.
