Real-time physiological data capture
Milbotix is a fast growing, venture-backed digital health company with offices in Bristol, UK. We create accurate, AI-enabled wearable devices embedded in everyday items of clothing for use in research, social care and healthcare.
Our first family of products is called SmartSocks®, a user-friendly, comfortable, familiar and non-stigmatising sock wearable. The socks contain e-textile and silicon sensors measuring pulse, temperature, sweat, and motion.
Our SmartSocks® solutions
Our initial solutions comprise SmartSocks®DISCOVERY, intended for researchers and SmartSocks®COMFORT for care homes & home care agencies.
SmartSocks®DISCOVERY enables researchers to unobtrusively collect physiological data from wearers who may remove a wrist-worn device, maximising research accuracy and productivity.
SmartSocks®COMFORT enables caregivers to unobtrusively monitor for signs of anxiety and distress, particularly when communication presents a challenge, improving outcomes and quality of care.Latest news
