The Beltless Heart Rate Monitor Glove From Beurer
Here’s a great heart rate monitoring Beurer GmbH glove. This glove measures the reflected light from an artery found in the index finger and helps to measure the heart beat. This glove doesn’t use any sort of belt system used by several other brands which would be very irritating and difficult to use. Without this device one would have to wear an obtrusive belt across the chest in order to measure your heart beat.
This glove not only measures heart beat but also measures blood pressure, and all this can be achieved without much of trouble and easy interface.

I agree it’s a great device and they found a clever way to get rid of the chest strap. However, it doesn’t measure blood pressure!
