Sensing just beneath the skin

A platform in advanced development that reads ions and biomarkers in the fluid under the skin — continuous measurement a surface sensor cannot reach.

What the surface cannot tell you

Skin-surface sensors read what the body shows on the outside: rhythm, motion, temperature. Chemistry stays out of reach.

Microneedles sample interstitial fluid just below the surface, so ion and biomarker levels become something a wearable can follow continuously.

What it delivers

  • Sub-skin biomarkers

    Detect and quantify ions and biomarkers beneath the skin including sodium levels with high precision.

  • Repeatable readings

    Engineered microneedles designed for accurate, reliable, and repeatable measurements.

  • Stable enough to integrate

    Optimized for stability, consistency, and integration with connected wearable systems.

What it makes measurable

Continuous monitoring

Continuous monitoring

Biomarker trends followed between appointments, rather than sampled at one.

Measurement that was previously out of reach

By accessing interstitial fluid with microneedles, the platform can measure salt content and other biomarkers in real time.

That gives earlier, more actionable insight across a wide range of health applications.

The platform roadmap extends the same sensing approach to sweat analysis — reading biomarkers in sweat alongside interstitial fluid to bring better resolution to the Internet of Human™.

In advanced development

Collaborations are scoped case by case, against the biomarker and the form factor you need to measure in.

  • How it is described technically

    Our microneedle platform enables minimally invasive measurement of biomarkers beneath the skin — extending continuous health monitoring below the surface.

Build with Microneedle Platform

When a program needs biomarker measurement beneath the skin — beyond what surface sensing reaches.
