The human body is unique, with each person having varying metabolic needs, energy expenditure and a diverse response to exercise and food. Quantifying how diet, hydration and exercise impact our bodies in such singular ways is currently impossible outside of the lab, with people currently reliant on wearables that provide generic data such as heart-rate, body weight and movement data.Whilst the wearable technology market is still rapidly growing £21.5bn by 2022 (233m\_unit\_sales), innovation in the sector has slowed ([Forbes:2018][0]) and the vast majority of devices still feature the same sensors (GPS\_heart rate\_accelerometer)as 10 years ago.We are a sensor start-up based at the Imperial College London Translation and Innovation Hub that develops innovative personalised health and wellbeing sensor devices. Working in partnership with Sports Science department of Loughborough and British Triathlon athletes, we intend to develop the world's first molecular performance tracker - monitoring biomarkers in the bodies' dermal interstitial fluid just below the skin in real-time, to provide insights on energy, metabolism, fatigue, blood-sugar level and diet to help optimise training, improve diet, prevent exhaustion and reduce the risk of fatigue-related injury.The ability to unobtrusively monitor the bodies' biomarkers in real-time has significant wider potential as both a personal health monitor- helping people understand when to eat, hydrate, rest etc. (personal & military markets) and as a medical device- providing real-time monitoring of biomarkers indicators of health conditions (e.g. diabetes, sepsis etc.)[0]: https://www.forbes.com/sites/paullamkin/2018/10/23/smart-wearables-market-to-double-by-2022-27-billion-industry-forecast/#3231bbac2656

人体是独一无二的，每个人都有不同的代谢需求，能量消耗以及对运动和食物的潜水员反应。 Quantifying how diet, hydration and exercise impact our bodies in such singular ways is currently impossible outside of the lab, with people currently reliant on wearables that provide generic data such as heart-rate, body weight and movement data.Whilst the wearable technology market is still rapidly growing £21.5bn by 2022 (233m\_unit\_sales), innovation in the sector has slowed ([Forbes:2018][0]) and绝大多数设备仍然具有与10年前相同的传感器（GPS \ _ Heart Rate \ _Accelerometer）。我们是伦敦帝国学院翻译和创新枢纽的传感器初创企业，它开发了创新的个性化健康健康和健康传感器设备。我们与拉夫堡体育科学系和英国铁人三项运动员合作，我们打算开发世界上第一个分子性能跟踪器 - 监测体内皮肤的真皮室间液体中的生物标志物，实时在皮肤下方的皮肤上，以实现能源，疲劳，饮食的饮食疗法，以改善型号的饮食，以促进疲劳，以促进脂肪，以促进疲劳，以促进疲劳，以促进疲劳，以促进脂肪，以促进疲劳，以使精力充实，以富度饮食，使饮食能够充分利用疲劳。由于个人健康监测仪，可以不显眼地监测身体的生物标志物具有巨大的潜力，因为个人健康监护仪 - 帮助人们了解何时饮食，水合，休息等（个人和军事市场）（个人和军事市场），以及作为医疗设备，提供对健康状况的生物标志物指标的实时监测（例如，糖尿病，SEPSIS，SEPSIS等）。 https://www.forbes.com/sites/paullamkin/2018/10/10/23/smart-wearables-market-to-double-by-2022-27-billion-billion-industry-forecast/#3231bbbac2656
