Professional magazine and portal dedicated to electronics From skin to within: Miniature sensors and light solutions from ams OSRAM
Author: Jan Robenek
A highly precise temperature sensor, barely larger than a poppy seed, makes the use of wearables for continuous on skin measurements easier than ever. Equally miniaturized, but designed for use inside the body, are the NanEye camera modules for single-use endoscopy. Beyond that, ams OSRAM offers solutions spanning the entire medical value chain — from laboratory analysis to patient care.
In diabetes care, for example, body temperature provides valuable context: helping to interpret glucose readings more accurately, whether during infections, physical activity, or throughout the day. And that’s just one example — the new AS6223 temperature sensor from ams OSRAM is designed for compact, battery-powered devices that fit seamlessly into everyday life. The sensor comes in a package smaller than one square millimeter — barely bigger than a poppy seed — while maintaining an accuracy of ±0.09 °C. This makes it even easier to integrate temperature measurement into wearables such as smartwatches, rings, or medical patches (more info).
