    ASEN Co., Ltd. (CEO Park Se-jeong) announced that it will participate in CES 2024, the world’s largest IT and home appliance exhibition, to be held in Las Vegas, USA in January next year.

    ASEN is an early startup that has been established for three years and has been developing wearable bio sensors and devices. It boasts the distinction of not only miniaturizing sensors for measuring biological signals by converging soft electronics technology and its own new material synthesis technology, but also implementing them in a flexible form. The company explains that through material research that does not rely on existing components, it expands the possibilities of wearable devices and contributes to improving human health.

    In particular, ASEN plans to introduce its latest oxygen partial pressure measurement device ‘LOXSA’ through the upcoming CES 2024. The partial pressure of oxygen in the tissue is an important indicator for early diagnosis and treatment of diseases caused by hypoxia, PAD, diabetic ulcers, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, etc. LOXSA can be attached anywhere on the body to treat this non-invasively. Supports accurate and convenient measurement.

    The film in contact with the patient’s skin has a soft texture that does not impede the patient’s daily movements, and the data measured through the sensor is transmitted in real time to the medical staff’s mobile device through a wireless network, providing improved convenience for both medical staff and patients. do.

    Regarding this, an ASEN official said, “LOXSA is a sensor developed through the convergence of chemistry, materials science, and electrical and electronic engineering technology and knowledge,” and added, “This sensor, created through long-term research and development, measures oxygen partial pressure, which is important for disease diagnosis. “It boasts high value as a digital healthcare solution because it can be used in any posture and condition.”

    ASEN plans to expand supply to medical sites in each country after LOXSA’s FDA approval, and plans to secure new customers by publicizing the product’s excellence at CES 2024. A company official said, “We are pursuing clinical trials and obtaining FDA approval for LOXSA, and are working hard to introduce additional wearable biosensors and devices,” adding, “ASEN’s technology is helping patients and patients around the world.” “We will do our best for a future that contributes to simultaneously improving the convenience of hospitals,” he said.

    Meanwhile, ‘CES’, the world’s largest IT exhibition hosted by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), is an exhibition where you can see the flow of innovative technologies around the world at a glance and is held every January in Las Vegas, USA. AVING News, which has covered CES for 18 consecutive years, has reported CES news around the world every year since 2006, and has been selected through ‘BEST OF CES’ and ‘BEST OF MADE IN KOREA’, which select the best innovative products, companies and technologies. has been in progress. In addition, CES on-site issues are vividly conveyed through ‘AVING LIVE’.

    The CES 2024 Seoul Unified Hall will be operated at the largest scale in terms of exhibition area, number of participating companies, and number of participating supporters since Seoul City’s first participation in CES in 2020. The Seoul Integration Center, in which 13 organizations collaborate and participate, is an important step in Seoul’s efforts to make Seoul a mecca for startups, and 17 of the companies participating in the Seoul Integration Center proved this by receiving innovation awards. The participating institutions in the Seoul Unification Center are ▲SBA ▲Seoul Bio Hub ▲Campus Town ▲AI Yangjae Hub ▲Gwanak-gu ▲Yonsei University ▲Korea University ▲Chung-Ang University ▲Sogang University ▲Kookmin University ▲Hanyang University ▲Konkuk University ▲Kyunghee University. Not only the Seoul Metropolitan Government, institutions, and companies, but also supporters through industry-academia cooperation are matched 1:1 with companies, and 85 supporters, the largest number, will participate.
