Rockley Photonics is partnered with Apple and medical device makers, developing a spectrophotometer on a chip for devices like the Apple Watch and other medical wristbands. Their sensors can measure multiple biomarkers in the blood in addition to glucose, like alcohol, hydration, core body temperature, lactate. They are presenting at the Baird investment conference Monday morning. https://www.yahoo.com/now/rockley-photonics-present-baird-2022-201700959.html https://www.yahoo.com/now/rockley-photonics-present-baird-20...
- wardedVibe 4y agoI saw similar products at Nokia bell labs ~3 years ago. Super stoked to see this stuff actually on the market in ~2030. Kinda wish it were sooner, but if you fuck up, someone probably dies.
- lrhegeba 4y agothere are several r&d companies like rockley trying to bring contactless optical measurement to market, e.g. https://www.diamontech.de/home https://www.diamontech.de/home Most are based on quantum cascade lasers. go science :-)
- iamacyborg 4y agoGiven how inaccurate watch based spo2 measurements still are, I wouldn’t hold my breath at this happening any time soon.
