ABOUT ETISENSE

The MedTech specialized in non-invasive physiological monitoring instruments for laboratory animals.

Etisense is a French biomedical engineering company based in Lyon, specialized in developing and commercializing physiological monitoring instruments for laboratory animals. The journey started at TIMC-IMAG laboratory from Grenoble-Alpes University, within a multidisciplinary  team of scientists specialized in physiology and signal processing. The company was created with the idea that physiological monitoring should be simple and non-invasive to face the challenges of a modern and ethical medical research.

From the beginning of its adventure, Etisense is constantly improving its solutions. Today, our product ranges combine textile engineering, high performance sensors and electronics, advanced signal processing algorythms and modern software experience with full web technologies. As we believe in a global approach to achieve performant physiological monitoring, collaborations are helpful and welcome to serve your projects.

Our mission is to develop new ways to monitor physiological functions based on connected textiles. Our ambition is to cover a wide range of applications from animal / preclinical research towards veterinary medicine and human pathologies or well-being.
