Nokia to acquire connected devices maker Withings

April 27, 2016 by Ankush Mahajan

Nokia is diving into the digital health market with plans to acquire French fitness gadget maker Withings. After selling off its mobile phone and Here maps division around two years ago, Nokia also purchased Alcatel-Lucent last year for a sum of $16.5 billion. These moves show how the Finnish company is focusing on the future with eyes on the Internet of Things (IoT) and the 5G segment.

Withings was founded in 2008 and has since released a number of connected healthcare devices including, but not limited to, fitness trackers, smart watches, thermometers and blood pressure monitors. The company has developed more than 100 apps and is primarily known for its Aura connected alarm clock and Wi-Fi Body Scale.

The proposed $192 million deal is expected to close later this year pending approval by regulators.

January 5, 2016 by Kunal Gangar

With most devices getting connected these days, Withings too has got with it. It has come up with a new thermometer that can record readings and transmit them to the app really fast. Behold Withings Thermo, a Wi-Fi-connected thermometer that records the temperature from the temporal artery. Equipped with 16 sensors, Thermo measures the temperature from the side of the head and brings up the reading so fast it can give you whiplash – about 2 seconds.

The free app compatible with both iOS and Android also enables users to transfer the reading quickly onto their smartphones via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth and can be shared with a doctor for further analysis. The app also features a log for multiple users to track the older and current temperatures.

Withings is currently showcasing the Thermo at CES 2016 and plans to sell Thermo in the United States from Q1 2016 for $99.95.
