“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.”

5. Clinic-gradeWearables (FDA approved)
– Australian Product
“TheViMove 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.”

9. Clinic-gradeWearables (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.”
