NuMetrex Heart Sensing Sports Bra
Named "2006 Sports Product of the Year" by the Sporting Goods Manufacturer's Association, the NuMetrex Heart Sensing Sports Bra was the first commercial garment to incorporate textile sensing technology. Electronic sensing fibers are knitted directly into the fabric, where they pick up the wearer's heartbeat and radio it to a watch via a tiny transmitter in the front of the bra.


NuMetrex Cardio Shirt for Men
Constructed of an advanced wicking fabric with special sensory fibers integrated directly into the garment, the NuMetrex Cardio Shirt allows men to wear a heart rate monitor without knowing it is there. The conductive fabric moves comfortably with the body, picking up the heart's pulse and sending it to a compatible watch or cardio machine via a tiny transmitter that is snapped into a pocket in the shirt.


NuMetrex Heart Sensing Racer Tank
Offering the same seamless heart rate monitoring capabilities as the NuMetrex Heart Sensing Sports Bra, the sleeveless racer tank features a shelf bra where the electronic sensing technology is integrated into the fabric to monitor heart rate. The NuMetrex Heart Sensing Racer Tank is made of quick-drying nylon Lycra with a second-skin fit and medium support.
