Currently Apple makes development kits available to developers and researchers such as ResearchKit or CareKit. These tools allow researchers to obtain information about users and use it for health or other research. However, Apple wants to take another step in the world of research and could launch very soon SensorKit, a development kit that would allow access to a large number of sensors of the different devices of the big apple. Sources suggest that it could be launched next week along with the iPhone 11, but all are rumors.
Will we see the new SensorKit next week?
Research has become key in Apple's ranks. Working in this line endows the Big Apple with great professionalism not only because of its involvement in this type of task, but because it advances by converging research with technology, providing it to the base user. Currently, as we discussed earlier, Apple makes ResearchKit and CareKit available. These development kits have been used to carry out studies such as a study related to the early detection of autism or Parkinson's disease.
However, Apple engineers have been working on a new development kit that could be named after SensorKit. This kit would allow access to a large number of sensors located inside the devices: ambient light, accelerometer, gyroscope, location, heart rate of the Apple Watch ... Access to this type of information together with Research and CareKit would increase the possibilities of biomedical engineers and other types of professionals to advance in projects that require this type of information.
In addition, the project would be so advanced that an application would also be launched that would bring together all the projects in which we are attached and where we can sign up. It is very likely that we will see SensorKit next week, along with the presentation of the new iPhone 11. Although if there is any doubt as to whether it will turn out well or not, Apple would have no problem waiting for WWDC 2020 to present before its jewel in the crown, the developers, these great advances in the world Of the investigation.
