FURTHER EXAMPLES OF

WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY IN HEALTH

Google Smart Contact Lenses

“Swiss drugmaker Novartis has struck an

agreement with Google to develop ‘smart’

contact lenses that would help diabetics to track

their blood glucose levels or restore the eye's

ability to focus.

The device for diabetics would measure glucose

in tear fluid and send the data wirelessly to a

mobile device, Novartis said.”

Clinic-grade Wearables (FDA approved) – Australian Product

“The ViMove platform consists of four sensors embedded

in two devices worn on the body.

One contains an accelerometer, magnetometer, and

gyroscope and tracks movement. The other is a diagnostic

electromyography sensor that measures muscle activity.

This allows the device to measure and record range of

movement and muscle activity in the lower back, lumbar

support, and other kinds of movement.

The data is transmitted wirelessly to a computer, which

automatically generates reports for patients and physicians

to read.”

“Both devices sport a tri-axis

accelerometer, but the MotionWatch is

also waterproof and contains an ambient

light sensor. The MotionWatch has a 6-

month replaceable battery while the PRO-

Diary has a 3-week rechargeable battery.

The devices upload data to a PC via a USB

cord.”

Clinic-grade Wearables (FDA approved)

“It’s sort of a wearable [that was created]

before wearables were cool and it is a

validated wearable that’s an FDA Class 2

device that has quite a following in the

research world,’ Doug McCormack,

President of Modus.

At the moment, one of the biggest hurdles

for StepWatch is that it has no wireless

connectivity.

The company is currently working on

modifying the device to upload data to a

mobile device via Bluetooth.”
