Oscar Wong/Getty Images Therapy can feel like a finite resource, especially lately.

Ultrahuman/ZDNETSmart ring maker Ultrahuman is diving into the world of smart home health. The brand announced today that it’s launching Ultrahuman Home, its home health monitoring system, which assesses the environmental health of living spaces to optimize air quality, sleep, UV, and more. Also: I found a subscription-free smart ring that rivals OuraUltrahuman said indoor air quality, temperature, humidity, noise, and light have long been underestimated as contributors to overall health, and its device, which retails for $550, aims to quantify these factors for “comprehensive data and intervention,” according to the press release. Ultrahuman Home is equipped with a sensing system that continuously monitors and detects particulate matter flow, chemical pollutants, and air quality concentrations. It tracks volatile organic compounds typically released by paints, cleaning supplies, building materials, or formaldehyde, a cancer-causing substance found in a wide variety of household materials and cleaners. This information is monitored in real-time on the Ultrahuman app. Also: Two popular smart rings just got caught copying OuraIn addition to air quality, Ultrahuman Home also tracks room temperature, humidity, and noise to provide additional insights into factors that impact sleep. When a user wears the Ultrahuman Ring Air to bed and is woken by a loud siren outside, the Ultrahuman Home detects the disturbance and notes that the user has woken up on the smart ring. This integration, known as UltraSync, connects the internal aspects of health, such as resting heart rate and sleep quality, with the external environment. “Ultrahuman Home is our step towards integrating environmental awareness into personal health. By continuously monitoring factors like air quality, light, and noise, we’re enabling individuals to make informed decisions about their living spaces, leading to improved well-being and recovery,” said Ultrahuman founder and CEO Mohit Kumar in the press release.
