To a clearer picture.

An illustrative signal path for the connected product direction.

  1. 01

    Sense

    Motion and temperature sensors capture local signals.

  2. 02

    Process

    A controller timestamps and filters samples.

  3. 03

    Connect

    A proposed Bluetooth LE link transfers supported readings.

  4. 04

    Understand

    The app presents trends alongside daily routines.

Component options. Explained clearly.

Research candidates, not confirmed installed components. Final selection requires engineering, fit, power and product-specific validation.

Candidate component

Bosch BMI270

Movement sensing

An accelerometer and gyroscope measure acceleration and rotation. Software can use those samples to explore movement and posture trends.

Candidate component

Texas Instruments TMP117

Temperature sensing

A digital sensor converts local temperature into readings for a controller. Skin contact, enclosure design and calibration determine what the complete wearable can measure.

Candidate component

Nordic nRF54L15

Processing + Bluetooth LE

A 128 MHz Arm Cortex-M33 processor combines local computation with a low-power radio. A candidate for collecting sensor samples and sending supported data to a companion device.

The Birth · Hardware in development

Meet the little device inside.

Our next hardware direction brings a tiny, simple module into different attachments. The BirthTech logo stays on the device, whether it sits in the Smart Belt, a pendant or a patch.

The Smart Belt holds The Birth close to the mother’s abdomen. A patch explores wearing it directly on the skin, while a pendant offers another format for adults. A dedicated baby attachment is a separate development direction.

What is The Birth?

The Birth is our tiny wearable module. The Smart Belt is one proposed way to wear it, holding the BirthTech-branded pod close to the mother’s abdomen.

Can The Birth be worn without the belt?

We are also exploring an adult pendant and an adhesive patch. Each attachment and intended use requires its own validation; the belt itself is designed for adults.

Is Smart Belt available to buy?

Smart Belt will be available from March 1, 2027. Contact BirthTech for launch information and ordering enquiries.

Does it measure fetal heartbeat?

Fetal heartbeat sensing requires separate development and clinical validation. It is not presented as a current capability.

Do I need a belt to use the app?

No. The app is designed to be useful without a wearable. Hardware is optional.
