Epson has unveiled a new offering in wearable technology that sees the brand entering for the first time the sport and health & well-being sectors. Epson's new line of Runsense GPS fitness trackers includes the Runsense SF-310, SF-510, SF-710, and SF-810. The Runsense looks like a standard fitness wristwatch. No matter the model, the black and white screen measures 28.2 millimeters and has a 128x96 pixel resolution. The Runsense watches can track speed, pace, distance, laps, and calories burned. Every model except the entry-level SF-310 can also measure the runner's stride. The new Pulsense line of heart rate monitors comes in two different versions - the PS-100 and the PS-500. The PS-100 looks like a sleek fitness tracking band, while the PS-500 has a watch-like look and a screen. Both models monitor the heart rate, sleep, and the number of steps one takes in a day, and users can track their progress in the Pulsense View app. Both the Runsense and Pulsense ranges will be available in the U.K., France and Germany from September 2014, except for the high-end SF-810 version of the Runsense, which is scheduled to arrive in November.
