Research foundation
Our groundbreaking research begins into optical monitoring to overcome the limitations of pulse oximetry.
Carelight’s Weartech devices powered by OPM, deliver AI-driven, clinical-grade insights with accuracy, inclusivity and real-world reliability.
?OPM is Carelight’s proven Opto Physiological Monitoring technology – the foundation of our Weartech devices for managing and preventing acute and chronic disease.
It’s a new approach to optical sensing technology that overcomes the biggest limitation of pulse oximetry, the hospital-standard way of measuring oxygen in the blood. Traditional sensors often fail on darker skin tones or when patients move.
OPM captures clearer signals in real-world conditions, delivering accurate monitoring across every patient, in motion and at rest. This breakthrough makes medical grade monitoring possible anywhere, from hospital to home.
OPM combines five core innovations that make accurate, inclusive monitoring possible in real-world conditions. From advanced optical sensing to AI-driven adaptability, each element works together to deliver medical-grade insight for every patient, from hospital to home.
Our multi-wavelength sensor deliver an even light field through a volume of tissue, supporting more consistent signals at the source.
Advanced modelling accounts for skin tone, tissue depth and individual differences, delivering accuracy across all patients, in every skin tone.
Machine learning fine-tunes light in real time, ensuring reliable readings in the most challenging conditions.
Accurate results that hold steady during everyday movement, not just in controlled, lab-perfect settings.
By capturing the fine features in the pulsatile signal, OPM, enhanced with AI-driven analysis, unlocks insights into a wide range of cardiac conditions that smartwatches and consumer wearables can’t match.
Carelight’s Weartech devices, powered by OPM technology, support patients every step of the way with continuous, AI-enhanced clinical grade insights that work in real life.
