Oura, the smart ring maker, is facing a class-action lawsuit over allegations that it misled customers about its sleep-tracking capabilities. The complaint argues that the Oura Ring cannot accurately measure sleep stages because it does not directly monitor brain waves. Instead, the device relies on motion, heart rate, and temperature sensors combined with AI models to estimate sleep data. Plaintiffs claim the company exploited consumers who struggle with sleep by marketing an inaccurate product. The lawsuit highlights broader concerns about the reliability of wearable sleep-tracking technology.

Volvo adds vehicle-to-vehicle hazard alerts for animals and road users

Volvo is rolling out new connected safety features across three of its electric vehicle models. The system allows Volvo cars to automatically detect and share road hazards — such as animals or vulnerable road users — with other vehicles in the fleet. Unlike crowdsourced tools such as Google Maps or Waze, the alerts rely on data collected directly from Volvo's own passenger vehicles. When a car's sensors identify a hazard, its location is logged and transmitted to Volvo's servers, which then push alerts to nearby drivers. The feature is currently active for Volvo fleets operating in Europe, the United States, and Canada.
