About

OutSense Diagnostics is developing an IoT sensor for wellness monitoring and early detection of illness. The sensor uses imaging technologies to monitor essential health and wellness parameters and communicates them to the user with a mobile app. The company's primary goal is to prevent colorectal cancer by identifying hidden blood in stool. The OutSense clip-on toilet sensor is designed to be user friendly and includes a proprietary optical setup, data acquisition board, connectivity, and a mobile phone app. The hands-free sensor automatically scans every elimination and is capable of identifying minute traces of blood in stool. The OutSense sensor can perform hundreds of measurements per year, improving accuracy and compliance. The OutSense platform is also useful for other GI conditions, such as irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's disease, and colitis, as well as for lifestyle and personalized nutrition applications.
