These usage details, along with the day’s temperature, humidity level and pollen count will be available as daily, weekly and monthly downloadable reports. Users will be able to determine the best days to run based on these reports. The mobile and watch applications will track activity like distance, time and blood oxygen levels during the user’s run. The asthma medication comes in a canister that sits inside of an actuator that has a mouthpiece from which the medication is inhaled. The canister is easily removed from the original actuator and placed into the RunBud wearable inhaler.114 leavesapplication/pdfenAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 United StatesThis item may be protected under Title 17 of the U.S. Copyright Law.
