New Product Version Launch: Speck Light Exposure Sensor

Blue Iris has commercialized a new version of the Speck light exposure sensor. The new version is functionally similar to the previous version but has been modified for increased field robustness (e.g., more resilient power supply, stronger case, etc) and for manufacturing scalability.

New Product Launch: Addition of generative AI features to Kinto

The team at Kinto deployed the two main generative AI features to their production system where coaches can view strain assessment data and resource recommendations. The team also created a repeatable framework for extracting and anonymizing caregiver data sets from the Kinto platform on demand to provide training data sets for further testing and development of generative AI features at scale.

Publication: Assessing Novel Orthostatic Vital Signs with a Wearable Sensor

Authors: Ziad A. Elhajjaji, Amar S. Basu Abstract Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a reduction in blood pressure and cerebral blood flow upon standing. Presenting in nearly 30% of older adults, OH is associated with increased fall risk and other co-morbidities. The clinical standard for monitoring OH, a blood pressure (BP) cuff, fails to capture initial orthostatic hypotension (IOH) and rapid hemodynamic changes during orthostasis. In contrast, cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) and continuous BP requires costly instrumentation unsuitable for home monitoring. As result OH is often underdiagnosed and poorly managed. This paper proposes a novel method for monitoring OH using TRACE, a wireless earlobe sensor that quantifies orthostatic hypovolemia (OHV), postural orthostatic tachycardia (POT), and motion during a standup test. To our knowledge, OHV is a novel biometric that may be correlated with dizziness upon…
