Lifelight
Lifelight is game-changing technology that allows a mobile device to estimate blood pressure, pulse and breathing rate simply by looking into the device's built-in camera for up to 40 seconds. Completely contactless, with no additional hardware needed, it saves healthcare staff time while improving the patient experience. Today Lifelight is addressing health inequalities by detecting patients at risk of CVD early via an everyday mobile device, providing indicative vital signs to allow access to the right care pathway. Already a Class I medical device, with further market approvals on track, Lifelight is set to scale personal healthcare monitoring, through clinically actionable vital signs measurements. The potential is to enable patient-taken observations, leading to safer, easier, and more effective remote triage and monitoring.
