Dr. Thomas Wyss :

  • Has a degree as a sport teacher of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich 1997 – 2006.
  • And a Ph.D. in Physiology 2007 – 2010 of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich.

We can find many papers of the reseracher Thomas Wyss on www.researchgate.net:

as for instance the paper:

«RR interval signal quality of a heart rate monitor and an ECG Holter at rest and during exercise»

which was partly funded by Polar

Rob ter Horst uses this paper of Dr. Thomas Wyss as one if his main papers and argues with it to choose the Polar H10 as a reference device for his tests for his more than 100 smartwatches:

As Yogi Bhajan:

Master of Kundalini Yoga, PhD. said:

Keep up and you will be kept up, until you drop, Rob ter Horst. In 2019 a paper was published in Nature Reviews Cardiology about the Apple smartwatch, and the title was:

The Apple Watch can detect atrial fibrillation: so what now?

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41569-019-0330-y

Keep up until you drop, Rob ter Horst, until we read eventually in Nature Reviews Cardiology one day:

«Rob ter Horst, post-doctoral researcher from the CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna who is specialized in biological data analysis scientifically testes more than 100 smartwatches using the Polar H10, a chest strap which was scientifically tested by Dr. Thomas Wyss, deputy Rector of the Swiss Federal Institute of Sport Magglingen SFISM with a PhD. in Physiology – SO WHAT NOW?»

And will not also the sales rate of smartwatches drop, if such a paper should be published one day in Nature Reviews Cardiology?
