Sensifree builds patent-pending, low-power electromagnetic (RF) sensors and software for continuous biometric monitoring, with a first product that is a contactless heart rate sensor for wearables such as watches, fitness trackers and smart clothing. Its technology is designed to work through fabrics and underwater, operate with lower power consumption, and remain robust across ambient light, skin pigmentation, tattoos, hair, sweat and dirt. The company positions its platform as open and extensible for new biometric applications and services. Sensifree is also leveraging its core RF technology to develop a cuff-free blood pressure sensor, with preliminary results expected this year. The funding announced will expand engineering and product development headcount and accelerate business development efforts. The company is headquartered in Cupertino, California, with an R&D center in Petach-Tikva, Israel.
