MiEye
Wearable Light Sensor
A device made by researchers.
The first circadian wearable.
Understand how real-world light impacts circadian rhythms
MiEye is a best-in-class measure of light to help track and optimize circadian rhythms.
Challenge
Research shows that unhealthy light behaviours can result in chronic disease. But the health effects of light are non-conscious.
Solution
MiEye measures light the way the circadian clock sees it, which differs from visual light perception. By modeling the impact of light on the circadian clock, the device will help you understand your personal circadian rhythms giving you insight into healthier light behaviors.
Infrared sensing!
There is growing interest in the impact on near infrared (NIR) light on health. The “photobiomodulation” impact of NIR works primarily by being absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase (a key enzyme in the mitochondrial electron transport chain), which boosts ATP production, reduces oxidative stress, and triggers beneficial signaling pathways inside cells.
With the MiEye, you can understand your NIR exposure and potentiually boost mitochondrial function.
New Design
We have optimized our design for extended battery life and memory. The award-winning design is attractive, encouraging research participants to wear the device continuously.
An on-board accelerometer enables MiEye to distinguish wear vs. non-wear times, for more accurate analysis of the light data.
We have developed a charging bed that allows MiEye to capture the light in the sleep environment.
The charger design builds on a sleep narrative of a bed/pillow, the top surface appears to be ‘soft,’ allowing the wearable to lie down to go to sleep.
