Transmittance Technology: Accuracy and Growth in the Medical PPG Biosensor Market
Description: Focusing on the high-growth segment of Transmittance PPG Biosensors and their crucial role in medical applications requiring high accuracy, like pulse oximetry.
While Reflectance PPG dominates the consumer space, Transmittance PPG Biosensors are a high-growth segment, playing a vital role in the medical side of the PPG Biosensor Market. This technology involves placing the light source and the detector on opposite sides of the body—for example, clipping a sensor to the finger or earlobe—to measure the light that passes through the tissue. This method generally offers superior accuracy, especially for blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) measurement.
The precision offered by Transmittance PPG makes it indispensable for critical medical applications, including traditional pulse oximetry and certain blood pressure monitoring devices. Its ability to provide accurate measurements, even in low-perfusion or low-light clinical conditions, is a major driver of its high anticipated…
