The Spree SmartCap: All the benefits of a hat, plus a fitness tracker

Spree Wearables is taking on the chest strap with the creation of the Spree Pod. The small device can fit inside Spree wearables. Currently, they offer a headband and the Spree SmartCap.

The Spree SmartCap is probably exactly what you imagine it to be. It is a baseball cap with a small pouch to fit the Spree Pod. Well, less of a baseball cap, and more of a fitness hat. The Pod tracks a number of pieces of data and sends the information, via Bluetooth, to the Spree Fitness App. The app can then share your information with a number of other apps including MapMyRun, Runtastic, Runkeeper, and more.

The Spree Pod monitors your heart rate, speed, distance, time, calories burned and body temperature.

According to Spree Wearables,

Spree’s advanced technology integrates the wireless Performance Optimization Device, or POD. It uses a triple axis accelerometer to gain accurate movement readings and an advanced plethysmograph for body temperature monitoring. The POD can be easily interchanged between the Spree SmartCap and Spree Headband depending on your fitness needs.

The Spree SmartCap comes in black, white, teal, and pink. The hat and Pod combo will set you back $199.
