We combine deep expertise in electrode technology, textile integration and hardware engineering, so you don’t coordinate between labs, textile engineers and electronics houses.
One team, from sensor selection through to working prototype and series production.
Biosensor integration for wearables
from signal selection to certified product
Tell us about your sensing challenge
Why biosensor integration
is harder than it looks
A sensor that works on a bench doesn’t always work on a moving person. Static placement on a dynamic body is an engineering problem. The skin’s electrical field interferes with electrode signal quality. Movement creates noise artefacts. Washability requirements constrain your material choices. The difference between a dry electrode that works and one that doesn’t is in details that only surface after real-world testing.
We have over 60 years of combined experience integrating sensors into wearables. These are the integration challenges we solve every day:
- Stable sensor placement on a moving body
- Eliminating noise from movement and the skin’s electrical field
- Balancing waterproofing with signal transparency
- Internal vs. external sensor architecture for your use case
- Washability without degrading signal quality
- Multiple sensor modalities in one compact wearable
Sensors we have integrated
and which we can integrate for you!
Below, please find a selection of the many sensors that can be integrated into a wearable. We have used a majority of these in our wearables. Are you interested in developing a wearable sensor? We’d love to hear your ideas!
Biosignal sensors (electrode-based):
- ECG (electrocardiogram)
- EMG (muscle activity)
- EEG (brain activity)
- EDA (electrodermal activity)
- EMS (muscle stimulation)
We have a tested dry electrode library. Multiple technologies evaluated and integrated across medical and defence projects.
Motion & body
positioning:
- Accelerometer
- IMU (Innertial Measurement Unit)
- AHRS (digital compass)
- GPS
- Gait sensors
Mission Navigation Belt (AHRS), BalanceBelt (accelerometer), DANU SmartSocks (pressure + IMU).
Environmental and physiological sensors:
- PPG (heart rate, SpO2, HRV)
- Pressure / Force
- Temperature
- Stretch sensor
- Light sensor
- Gas sensor (Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s))
- EMS (muscle stimulation)
SmartShoulder (light & movement), SmartShirt (stretch), DANU (pressure & movement).
Biosensing wearables we've built
Stress Sense Shirt
Measuring stress through electrodermal activity (EDA) and dry electrode technology for comfort.
How we work with you
We can enter a biosensor wearable project at any stage:
- Sensor selection and feasibility → before you commit to hardware
- Proof of concept → working prototype with off-the-shelf components
- Pilot samples → engineered hardware, production-intent design
- Pre-launch review → HW/FW check, signal quality validation
- Series production support → certified manufacturing network
Every stage uses Agile development: progress meeting every two weeks, full budget visibility, a team that has done this before in your sector.
