Lighting new paths
About
Exalight’s flagship solution is a low-cost, portable, and reusable phototherapy blanket that treats neonatal jaundice. An 8-megapixel camera attached to the blanket records and monitors the color of the skin as well as the intensity of the LED lights. This data is sent to the microcontroller near the battery case where it can be stored and sent to medical professionals or to the companion app. This is the only phototherapy blanket on the market that not only treats jaundice and other skin conditions but also monitors them as well.
