## CALDANCE-certified Wearable Hardware

### Frist Wearable Hardware - Apple Watch

The team hopes to have more players participate by contributing their health and exercise data through exercise training, thereby building and enriching CALDANCE's health and exercise data ecosystem.&#x20;

Therefore, the team chose the Apple Watch, which has the largest market share in wearable hardware, as the first certified wearable hardware. By installing the CALDANCE watch APP developed for the Apple Watch, Players can obtain real and credible health and exercise data in real time.

**Players who own an Apple Watch (5th generation or later) can participate in CALDANCE by installing the application.**

### Why first model choose the Apple Watch?

For a portion of the wearable HLOS (high-level operating system) watch hardware market, the Apple Watch has a market share of more than 50%, with a cumulative global shipment of more than 150 million watches, and an existing player base of more than 100 million. These players can participate in the CALDANCE ecosystem in a low-cost manner and enter the world of Web 3.0.

The Apple Watch is equipped with numerous sensors for health and exercise use. Combined with the Health, Activity, and Workout applications built into the watch, it can already cover hundreds of human health data and dozens of exercise data, allowing users to better understand their own status. At the same time, through the CALDANCE-developed watch application and reward model, users can contribute credible health and exercise data to help CALDANCE improve its ecosystem.

The Apple Watch is based on Apple's closed and secure iOS operating system, and the generated health and exercise data are real and credible. This can better avoid potential cheating risks, causing the economic model in the ecosystem to collapse.
