@wil421 The Skulpt Aim is actually unlike any other device on the market. It uses a technique called Electrical Impedance Myography that my co-founder Dr. Seward Rutkove began developing over a decade ago at Harvard Medical School. Four years ago we combined his background in neurology with my engineering background to refine this technology and develop a system that not only gives you information about your fat content, but also your muscle quality. The first system we developed is medical in nature and is being used by pharmaceutical companies and academic researchers at some of the top hospitals across the US. The Skulpt Aim leverages all of the knowledge we have gained over the last decade to provide consumers with a tool that gives them fat percentage and muscle quality for individual muscles. The device uses patent-pending sensors and algorithms licensed from Harvard and MIT and others developed internally to calculate accurate indices of muscle fitness. Because the device is placed directly on the muscle you measure, it gives you very accurate data on that specific muscle. I'm curious, when you say "sensors like these", what in particular are you referring to? Regarding your second question, this first generation embodiment is a stand alone device, but we are certainly looking at other implementations for down the line. |
