New Health and Fitness devices launched at CES 2015 in Las Vegas...

Last year we showed developers how to build apps that connect to  heart rate monitors, wireless weight scales and other fitness devices using our RAD Studio and Appmethod products. These health devices provide interfaces via BluetoothLE and/or wireless networks. Sarina Dupont, Brian Alexakis and Diego Navarro have written and demoed how to use our products with the many new devices in the health and fitness space. With the increase in the number of products being announced and shipped, you have an advantage if you are using our latest releases.
