Chronolife Announces Commercial Availability of Biometric Nexkin™ T-Shirt; Closes New Round of Funding
The Nexkin™ platform uses cutting-edge wearable electronics to integrate 10 biometric scanners into a comfortable, machine-washable T-shirt capable of continuously recording a user's electrocardiogram, abdominal and thoracic breathing, body temperature, physical activity, and pulmonary impedance. Data from the shirt is transmitted via Bluetooth to the user's smartphone, where data from multiple sensors can be integrated using Chronolife's unique HOTS (Hierarchy Of event-based Time Surfaces) algorithms to deliver accurate and actionable health insights, which can subsequently be downloaded or transferred to secure servers for review by health professionals.
Comfortable enough for round-the-clock use, and combining a 24-hour battery life with the ability to fully recharge in just a few hours, Chronolife's Nexkin™ technology's combination of AI-powered real-time analytics and next-generation wearable sensors has the potential to revolutionize fields including aging-in-place, senior care, occupational health and safety, sports rehabilitation, military training, and performance management.
"The Nexkin™ T-shirt makes accurate, unobtrusive continuous health monitoring both affordable and convenient across a wide range of industries and functionalities, from pharmaceutical testing to senior care," said Laurent Vandebrouck, CEO of Chronolife. "By combining wearable electronics with advanced AI-powered analytics, we're delivering biometric monitoring capabilities that will revolutionize the way researchers and healthcare professionals will eventually interact with patients."
