While company’s like Apple are investing heavily in wearables, a growing number of innovative start-ups are also entering the wearable space. “One, notable for its pulse wave analysis (PWA) technology is CardieX, which has been conducting US trials into obtaining cardiovascular blood pressure (BP) data, using a Blumio radar frequency sensor and CardieX PWA technology in a wearable device,” said Keenan. CardieX has significant expertise in the market, with a central arterial pressure waveform analysis product that has seen 4,000 deployed worldwide in major medical institutions. “Experience is a benefit in this market,” suggested Keenan. “Former wearable market casualty Jawbone has resurfaced as Jawbone Health, a medical subscription service that aims to help users catch health problems early. While the company plans to offer subscribers a wearable device, it also intends to partner with device manufacturers (including Apple) to acquire data from a customer’s existing wearable sensors,” explained Keenan.
