Current market situation HTM Solutions
The most advanced current estimation methodology is an
ingestible pill. However, …
• Pills are disposable and quite expensive (50…80 €)
• Pills need to be swallowed 4-8 hours before a
monitoring period
• Food intake disturbes temperature monitoring
• On-line monitoring is limited due to connectivity and
data transfer issues through tissues
 No affordable and agile service solutions available
