The Indian Super League (ISL) side, Chennaiyin FC announced Ultrahuman, a wearable technology brand as an Official Wearable Partner for the 2024-25 and 2025-26 seasons to elevate athletic performance and player welfare and, in turn, boost the on-pitch results using technology.
By collating a large set of biomarkers on an integrated platform, Ultrahuman creates a grand unified view of the human body. Chennaiyin FC players will use the Ultrahuman Ring AIR, a smart ring, to help improve their training, matchday performance and recovery.
Ring AIR will provide insights that enable the players to sustain endurance and maintain energy levels during a match while providing a detailed breakdown of sleep patterns, which is vital for the players’ rest and recovery protocols. Understanding the athletes’ performance and recovery will enhance their physical endurance by monitoring indicators such as sleep, stress, movement, heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV), and skin temperature.
As part of their partnership, Ultrahuman and Chennaiyin FC will spotlight the importance of health monitoring and recovery in sports and beyond, while bringing state-of-the-art wellness monitoring technology to a wider audience. Ultrahuman’s presence on LED displays within the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Chennai, engaging CFC social media content, and collaborative initiatives will introduce fans and followers to the benefits of advanced health tracking.
Chennaiyin FC’s Vice President, Ekansh Gupta, said, “Technology plays a crucial role in modern football, not just in improving performance but also in ensuring player safety and well-being. This partnership with Ultrahuman reflects our commitment to staying at the forefront of innovation, both on and off the pitch.”
Mohit Kumar, Founder of Ultrahuman, said, “We are thrilled to partner with Chennaiyin FC. With the Ring AIR, players and coaches will benefit from advanced insights derived from powerful biomarkers to support their performance, cognition, and recovery.”
