Metabolic breath analysis
SBN41 for respiratory gas exchange monitoring (O₂ & CO₂) for every breath
Metabolic health drives fitness, personalized nutrition, and longevity. Measuring oxygen uptake (VO₂), carbon dioxide production (VCO₂), and ventilation (VE) reveals energy metabolism, fuel utilization (RER/RQ), and VO₂ max. These metrics were once limited to labs and elite athletes by using Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET), Indirect Calorimetry (IC), and ergo spirometry.
But human breath is complex. Rapid shifts in temperature, humidity, and gas composition, combined with exposure to ambient conditions, make accurate measurement extremely challenging. Until now, no scalable technology has delivered lab-grade precision, fast response, and robustness for consumer devices.
The SBN41‑resX delivers lab‑grade respiratory gas exchange sensing in a compact, scalable form factor.
Why choose our precision breath analysis sensor?
We eliminate barriers to medical-grade accuracy with a solution that solves the complex challenges of dynamic breath measurement.
True respiratory gas exchange sensing
Capture O₂ and CO₂ waveforms you can trust for every breath. Unlike single-parameter sensors, our solution delivers full respiratory gas exchange data required for accurate VO₂ , VCO₂ and RER calculation.
Accurate performance at rest and during exercise
Our solution maintains precise O₂ and CO₂ measurements even under rapid changes in temperature, humidity, and gas composition at high breathing rates.
Our breakthrough: SBN41 gas exchange sensor for wearables and smart devices
We bridge the gap between lab-grade precision and consumer-ready design. The SBN41 is a miniaturized respiratory gas exchange sensor that delivers real-time, breath-by-breath analysis of O₂ and CO₂ with medical-grade accuracy in a compact form factor. Built to handle the dynamic conditions of human breath, it enables portable indirect calorimetry and advanced metabolic monitoring, bringing lab-quality insights to wearables and smart devices for everyone.
