CONNECTED SOLUTIONS

Kolibree, a tech company focused on connected solutions in oral health, has launched Ara, a CES 2017 Innovation Award Honouree and the first toothbrush with embedded artificial intelligence.

“Patented deep learning algorithms are embedded directly inside the toothbrush on a low-power processor,” said Kolibree founder and CEO Thomas Serval. “Raw data from the sensors runs through the processor, enabling the system to learn your habits and refine accuracy the more it is used. Ara is Kolibree’s newest innovation for personalised healthcare, with an eye on disease prevention and wellness.”

Ara knows precisely where the person is brushing, even when not connected to the app on a mobile device. Whether brushing on or offline, brushing data is captured in the toothbrush and automatically synced via Bluetooth Low Energy when the app is open. This surpasses the capabilities of any other smart toothbrush.
