Medical wearables
Health innovation
We’ve developed a wide range of health and medical wearables, both independently and together with partners. These wearables take advantage of the latest advances in electronic textiles and medical science to:
- Improve the daily lives of people with medical conditions, such as balance disorders.
- Help medical practitioners such as neurosurgeons perform their work more safely and efficiently.
- Facilitate research into new and innovative ways to address disabilities or other medical conditions.
To discuss your own ideas for wearable medical devices, please get in touch with us.

A selection of our health and medical wearables
BalanceBelt
BalanceBelt: A haptic feedback wearable that helps people suffering from balance disorders live more active and independent lives.
NeuroShirt
A smart shirt that helps guide neurosurgeons during skull base surgery to prevent damage to critical structures.
We don't like to brag, but our wearables make a difference
”Thanks to Elitac Wearables' experience with haptic feedback, usability and the scaled production of wearable electronics, we were able to develop a lightweight, comfortable and cost-effective version of the BalanceBelt.

”Thanks to the BalanceBelt, I am still able to live an active life, which wouldn’t otherwise be possible.

”The NeuroShirt […] helps us to know where we are and where the dangerous structures are, which we are trying to avoid.
