Allison interviews Paul Buckley from Withings about their new BeamO handheld device that lets you quickly and easily check your health status. BeamO is portable, smaller than a smartphone, and you can use it on the go to take vital measurements for you and your family members. The device can be used by up to 8 users in the same household. BeamO provides a 4-in-1 health checkup: it includes a digital stethoscope that provides insights into your heart and lung sounds, a medical-grade 1-lead ECG to detect AFib, an oximeter that measures your blood oxygen levels, and a contactless thermometer to measure body temperature. Although Beamo has not been clinically/medically validated yet, the plan is to clinically validate the device and obtain CE marking and FDA clearance to bring BeamO to market as a medical device. BeamO supports either a Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection to your mobile device. It offers a 8-month battery life and can be charged using a USB-C cable, provided in the box. BeamO will be launched in the summer of 2024 and will be priced at $249.95.
