    The charging coils on the base are orthogonal to the registration section, so I think having two isn't so much about rotational alignment, but rather for accommodating a *flip* of the ring - regardless of whether you put it right-side-up or upside-down on the base, the coils will align.

      Exactly, was saying if they flip the ring over all the points are mirrored

      Just to clarify, the registration flat on the ring is the pulse oximeter and the scans show how the charging coil in the ring is 90° away. If you put the ring on right-side-up, then the ring's charging coil will be on the left. If you put the ring on upside-down (flipped over), then the charging coil will be on the right. The two coils on the base account for this and ensure at least one of the coils is tightly coupled to the ring's single coil.

      I was watching the video just to see if they ever figured out that the ring has the coil on one side (not front or back) so flipping the ring would need 2 coils in the charger. Seems like a simple thing to figure out. Lol

    The clear piece over the diode is likely man made sapphire(Al2O3) for scratch resistance and possibly clarity. Sapphire is very dense and that's why it looks that way on the Lumafield.

    Love these teardowns!
    The PPG/SpO2 sensor is definitely a Maxim part. They make these fully integrated optical bio sensor modules.
    F.e. MAXM86161 looks close
    The other weird package is a. IR thermometer from Melexis the MLX90632

    The intention of plate in front of the diodes might be to be (more) scratch-resistant than than the rest of the plastic. I imagine a little bit of dust, sweat and activity would frost the internal over time.

    The charger is pretty interesting! No ferrite core explains why it has so powerful controller... The resonant frequency will be changing with it's position and then the fact that the ring itself is basically loop of conductive material so it forms shorted winding.
    My guess is that the controller does extra work of keeping the frequency and waveform correct.
    The second coil confirms it as they need to keep the magnetic field to increase the efficiency of the wireless charging and allow charging of bigger ring on smaller base flipped like Becky mentioned.

    Excellent video! I've got one of these rings and it needs to be on the charging base to install firmare updates - could the beefier chip in the charger be for that purpose, maybe?

    Does it also do pulse oximetry? I'm looking for something less bulky than the Wellue O2 Ring.

    The 2D barcode is Data Matrix. Same sort of barcode as one finds on a Digikey label. I wasn't able to scan this one from the video, but its probably just lot/date code anyway. Perhaps that chip is the MEMS IMU/accelerometer?

    lol, gets even better. Didn’t see the 4 screws in the scan of the charger before trying to pry it apart. I don’t think blaming the pain killers is a valid excuse.

    • @BeckyStern

      You misunderstood. I didn't even look at the scan before I started taking apart the base. I started tearing down before the scans were even ready. But go ahead, keep implying that I'm stupid and don't know what screws look like!

    Cool gadget. I’m however still dubious about the benefit of such a device. Sure it has cool sensors, but they aren’t medical grade, so not something which can be used for anything other than “rough guesstimates”.
    So cool as a gadget,but not sure of the overall value.

      all these parts are "medical grade" and are in fact used in medical devices.
      That is not what differentiates medical devices from consumer devices.
      The use case is what makes the difference and you can't have a device on your finger give you autonomous medical advise. Doesn't mean the data produced by these rings isn't useful.

      @@timonsku ok - but by medical grade I mean something which could be used in a hospital- these certainly are not… nor should they be trusted as a source for medical diagnosis… so in that context no, not medical grade at least not byCanadian standards.
      Means basically a gadget which may or may not indicate a medical affliction.
      Still a cool gizmo.

      I see this with some smart devices coming out with 'blood sugar' monitoring. However, at present to actually get a true measurement of blood sugar a sub-cutaneous sensor is needed. Anyone that claims otherwise will have super vague data, that is not that helpful.
