Blaze is Garmin’s new equine wellness system, a tail wrap and sensor designed to help riders, horse owners and trainers monitor their horse’s health and fitness so they can make more informed decisions about their well-being and training. The durable, convenient wrap design is easy-to-attach and holds the power-efficient equine optical heart rate sensor to the underside of a horse’s tail to gather data like heart rate, strides, gait, distance and more that users can view in real-time with a smartphone or Garmin smartwatch. Post-activity, review details including activity highlights, skin temperature, and time in heart rate zones. Additional features include the ability to monitor environmental conditions like air temperature and heat index for your location to understand their effects on a horse’s performance, and the capability to track multiple horses with individual profiles in the Blaze app.
