About greenTEG x Myant Smart Textiles monitoring system
greenTEG collaborated with Myant Inc. on their Skiin smart textile monitoring system.
Our new CALERA technology for measuring core body temperature has been integrated into the Skiin system. Users and especially their relatives can now reclaim their peace of mind knowing that their loved ones are well and safe, thanks to this wearable garment and its connectivity options via the Skiin Connected Life app, allowing them to monitor electrocardiogram (ECG), movement/posture, and core body temperature!
The CALERA® technology has been developed and validated by more than 10 clinical trials showing for all position, clinical grade accuracy.
