NEW YORK, Feb. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- LifeBEAM, a leader in wearable technology, announced today that its advanced bio sensing technology powers the heart rate monitoring feature of the new Under Armour(TM) Headphones Wireless Heart Rate - Engineered by JBL®. This partnership brings together the aerospace-grade accuracy of LifeBEAM's technology with JBL's Signature Sound quality and Under Armour's elite sportswear performance.

"This alliance with JBL and Under Armour is the latest example of LifeBEAM's technological collaboration with leading performance sports brands to deliver the most sophisticated and accurate biometrics to help consumers reach their fitness goals," stated Zvika Orron, chief technology officer at LifeBEAM. "The inner ear provides one of the most accurate sources of biometric data, such as heart rate and motion, making these in-ear headphones the ideal accessory for improving performance while also rocking out to a personal playlist."
The wireless heart rate headphones feature a touch sensor on the right ear that lets users hear their heart rate on demand, eliminating the need to interrupt the flow of the workout to look down at a smart phone or fitness device to check their stats. With Bluetooth connectivity to iOS and Android devices, a 12-month subscription to MapMyFitness and battery life of up to five hours, the headphones are designed for comfort, durability and ease of use. The three-button mic lets wearers control tracks, volume and calls easily and without disruption.
"LifeBEAM's smart bio sensing technology offers superior performance monitoring in a non-intrusive form factor. It helps us elevate and differentiate the UA Headphones Wireless Heart Rate - Engineered by JBL on function and design," stated Sean Kapoor, VP, Under Armour BU at HARMAN.
