Interactive Health Technologies

Interactive Health Technologies IHT is the industry leader in comprehensive student wellness accountability. Most of these laws require PE curriculums to have at least 50% MVPA.

Our science-backed wearable technology delivers heart rate data and performance metrics in real-time to connect physical and emotional health in education. Recognized by the American Heart Association as the 2014 Most Innovative Technology in the Field of Cardiovascular Health. With childhood obesity reaching epidemic proportions and costing an estimated $147 billion, 36 states have passed legisla

tion mandating enhanced physical activity in schools. Unfortunately, most schools have no way to track, report, or evaluate activity. The IHT Spirit System provides a solution by tracking and reporting student heart rate data on a daily basis. This information compiled with other student health data provides teachers, administrators, and parents an accurate and complete analysis of student health on an ongoing basis. Beyond satisfying state mandates, research has indicated that children who are physically active do better in school, have higher self-esteem, and attend class more regularly. Therefore, PE technology not only helps children maintain a healthy fitness routine, it also improves the lives of children in the classroom and beyond. IHT strives to support students not only in fitness but also on their path to academic success.

“I’m blessed because my district truly believes in student wellness,” Humble School District Coordinator of PE/Wellness Helen Wagner said. “The more kids you can show that you’re going to affect, the greater the return on what the district can get for you. The biggest thing I’m hearing is that [IHT] has completely changed the mindset of PE in high school.”

Most kids can't describe what anxiety feels like in their body … until they can see it on their wrist.

Schools are using heart rate monitors to give students real-time feedback on their emotional wellness. When a student's heart rate spikes before a test, during a conflict, or at recess – that color change on their wrist becomes a cue: time to breathe.

The results are changing lives. One school saw behavioral incidents drop from 17 to 3 in a year.

"No" isn't the end of the story … it's just the beginning.

We gathered the stories of 4 incredible educators who fought through budget rejections and bureaucratic walls to bring heart rate monitor technology to their students. Their secret? Learning the funding strategies that actually work.

The funding was always there. What these educators had to learn was where to look and how to ask.

A STEAM teacher in Georgia was staring at three years of flat math scores – and instead of accepting it, he did something revolutionary: He put heart rate monitors on his students.

He turned lessons into games. And the results? Kids became more engaged. Their confidence increased, their scores were higher, and even the teachers said they were becoming better teachers.

“The possibilities of where we can go are endless. We need to continue to inspire teachers to try new things. They are risky, but if we don’t take risks, we don’t get the reward. It is on us to ensure that students are learning, but we can do that by making sure they are having fun and staying engaged.”
– Sean Splawski, the Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) Lab teacher at Mableton Elementary, Georgia

Our Story

Recognized by the American Heart Association as the 2014 Most Innovative Technology in the Field of Cardiovascular Health. With childhood obesity reaching epidemic proportions and costing an estimated $147 billion, 36 states have passed legislation mandating enhanced physical activity in schools. Most of these laws require PE curriculums to have students log at least 50% of their class time exercising at a moderate to vigorous level (MVPA). Unfortunately, most schools have no way to track, report, or evaluate activity. The IHT Spirit System offers a solution with the top-selling heart rate monitor in public education, tracking and reporting student heart rate data on a daily basis. This information, compiled with other student health data, provides teachers, administrators, and parents an accurate and complete analysis of student health on an ongoing basis. Beyond satisfying state mandates, research indicates that physically active children do better in school, have higher self-esteem, and attend class more regularly. Therefore, IHT’s education heart rate technology not only helps children maintain a healthy fitness routine, it also improves the lives of children in the classroom and beyond. IHT strives to support students not only in physical fitness and emotional wellness, but also on their path to academic success.
