Zimmer and Peacock have manufactured the world's first wearable biosensor for development and research efforts.The Zimmer and Peacock wearables platform is a launchpad to any wearables effort.
The sensor comes as a pH, oxygen, sodium, potassium, lactate, potassium, glucose, hydrogen peroxide, if you want an alternative analyte please contact us here to discuss.
The beauty of the wearable biosensor from ZP is that you can build your own app, see the link for a quick way of starting.
Use the calculator below to determine how to set your desired voltage.
The ecFLEX has now been replaced by the Single Purpose Biosensor Circuit, which we have linked to in the adjacent button.

Comment
We have been asked whether there is a temperature sensors on board, and the answer is yes there are two one in the analogue front end (AFE) and one in the microcontroller. If you have the circuit in good thermal contact with the skin these two sensors should run at the skin temperature.
Support Library
This is for trouble shooting the ecFlex BlueTooth connection.
- Make sure battery has sufficient charge
- Try to ensure there are no obstacles between receiver (PC) and transmitter antennae (ecFlex)
- Keep antenna track clean, as any debris or oil from fingers will attenuate transmission power
- Clean the antenna track on the ecFlex with Isopropanol
- If the issue persists, try a different computer, as they have different amplification
- Then connection may still be intact. Try to click “Reboot device” in the “ecFlex BLE readout” application. If the device broadcasts (visible by the tx (dBm) changing value) connection is maintained.
This wearable adaptor for the ecFLEX which allows the sensor to be held in contact with the skin is available to customers of the ecFLEX. Please contact us for the 3D printable file.
