NeuroGut Tracker v1
NeuroGut Tracker offers wearable closed-loop gut–brain computer interface (GBCI) devices with multielectrode electrogastrography recording gastric slow waves and yielding indices reflecting gut–brain health and neurologically-linked GI conditions. Interpretable feedback is delivered to mobile apps promps timely adjustments in 1) side-effect-inducing neurological medication and 2) general behaviors
01
Two Versions-Tailored to different needs
We offer two GBCI variants: one optimized for seniors and low-mobility ambulatory monitoring, prioritizing accuracy while remaining comfortable and durable, and another engineered for maximum wearability and stretchability during higher-movement daily use.
02
Materials, Electrode Placement and Signal Collection
Our materials are chosen for stretchability, comfort, and durability, and our electrode type is selected to maximize signal fidelity.
We also employ a unique, scientifically grounded electrode-placement map, guided by the anatomical locations of organs whose signals most sensitively reflect gut microbiome activity and overall GI health.
Raw data are pre-processed with low-pass filtering and history-based predictive methods (e.g., Kalman filtering) to suppress artifacts and enhance signal quality.
03
Data Analysis & Model Training: Self-adaptable Algorithm
Unlike existing products, we extract two parallel data streams from a single recording—gastric activity and autonomic nervous system signals—using differentiated filtering, thereby directly linking gut function to brain state.
A deep learning model then monitors GI health through self-adapting, patient-specific training on each user’s data across different daily contexts (e.g., eating, bathroom use, resting), informed by activity logs in the companion mobile app.
04
Feedback: the NeuroGut Tracker App
Our app translates signals into interpretable feedback, generating personalized reports with guidance on medications (particularly for users with GI issues as comorbidities of neurological conditions), diet, and daily habits. It also functions as an activity logger to continuously refine and personalize our models.
Our system is accessible because it relocates gut–brain monitoring from scarce, urban hospitals into everyday spaces—homes, village clinics, and primary-care offices. By relying on smartphones and non-specialist users (patients, family caregivers, community health workers), it integrates into existing infrastructure instead of requiring new, high-cost facilities. Its personalized, longitudinal modeling also reduces dependence on extensive prior records, allowing people in data-scarce rural settings to still receive meaningful, high-level neuro-GI insight.
Business Status: Due to limited resources and facilities, our product is still at the stage of prototyping. However, our business team is actively outreaching and applying for funds.
