Technology
- Portable device enabling non-invasive, real-time detection of acute and chronic stress:
- Sensor in a wristband that detects skin conductivity (EDA), heartrate variability (HRV) and movements
- AI algorithm for signal analysis
- Real-time: this analysis is done every 2 mn
Market
- Stress is usually detected using:
- Cortisol rate in saliva (spot measurement in a hospital)
- STAI questionnaires (subjective)
- Smart bands and watches such as the Fitbit Sense 2 (no clinical validation)
Applications :
- Research on stress
- High-risk professions (army, police, firefighters, cash courriers…)
- Monitoring of people in detox
- Monitoring of work-related stress and burn-outs
- Monitoring of post-partum depression …
Development status
- A PoC has been tested on patients.
- Based on EDA: 96% precision
- Based on HRV: 84% precision
- Based on EMG: 82 % precision
