The company is allowing a handful of early adopters to get their hands on the Nabu smartband; the beta testers will receive their units on July 10th.

Previously, San Diego-based Illumina managed to drive down the cost of sequencing a human genome to $1,000, and now it's setting sight on a consumer product.

Folks behind this device are raising funds at Indiegogo, with the goal to reach $70,000; a single unit costs $70, and the delivery date is set for March 2015.

Measuring 80 x 20 mm, the compact gadget fits comfortably into a pocket or a purse, while an accompanying app boasts a huge database of ingredients.

The device packs a 3-axis accelerometer to identify body movements, as well as optical light sensors (Red and Infrared) for capturing heart rate.

The service already comes with ultra fast data input, intelligent Nagbot engine, reminders, testing supply management and alerts, and more.

Night Shift has already been clinically proven and is said to be up to two-times more accurate than activity trackers and mobile apps.

Non-profit organization Stupid Cancer is looking to crowdfund its Instapeer mobile app that will match up cancer patients for 1-to-1 peer counseling.

Other usual-for-these-kind-of-devices sensors will also come included, enabling calorie consumption, blood oxygen level and sleep activity tracking.

During this time the company helped users collectively burn 150 million calories, which is nearly 50,000 pounds or the weight of five adult African elephants.
