MindMics (Massachusetts): MindMics offers heart monitoring technology through low-frequency acoustical vibrations detected in the ear canal with technology embedded in earbuds and hearing aids. 

Nanowear (New York): Nanowear is an AI-based remote diagnostics tool utilizing cloth-based nanotechnology that allows nanosensors to capture more than 85 medical-grade biomarkers directly from the skin.
