Since we launched the world’s first wearable wireless heart rate monitor in 1982, times have changed, and so has humankind. All over the globe, people want to be the best version of themselves, and we at Polar are no different.
We know that progress doesn’t happen overnight. It requires us to work hard, constantly develop, always adapt, and fine-tune those features that have ensured the survival of the fittest since our genesis.
This is the mindset of every athlete, sports enthusiast, or curious explorer who has ever strived to be the best they can be.
It’s also the motivation behind our next generation of heart rate sensors. Polar Verity – welcome to the family.
THE NEXT STAGE OF EVOLUTION
Introducing Polar Verity Sense – the most advanced optical heart rate sensor in our genealogy.
This HR sensor has been developed using the DNA of its predecessor – Polar OH1 – to offer maximum freedom of movement and ultimate versatility.
With unrivaled accuracy and extreme reliability in optical heart rate measurement, Polar Verity Sense is the natural choice for anyone, any sport, any time.
The versatile, high-quality design makes it a great alternative to heart rate chest straps and wrist-based devices. The lightweight sensor is small but robust, packing a ton of features into a convenient, easy-to-use package that can be worn on your arm, clipped to your swimming goggles, or snugly placed anywhere on your body against your skin – perfect for when you want to concentrate on your workout without distraction.
THE FUTURE Of HR Technology IS NOW
History may define us, and perhaps there is no time like the present, but the future is just a heartbeat away.
Polar Verity Sense is built upon the years of experience, knowledge, and intuition that Polar is renowned for to meet the lifestyle demands of today – and tomorrow.
Polar Verity Sense is a new breed of OHR sensor, engineered to adapt to its environment, and it exists solely to optimize your performance in any sport.
To get moving, all you have to do is press a button, choose your training mode, put it where it feels most comfortable, and then focus on reaching your goals – your heart rate sensor will do the rest, tracking your data or recording your workout for you.
