Technology

Platforms. One signal path.

Everything below starts as a current at an electrode and ends as a decision. These are the places where UCARETRON does the hard part — and where OmniGram, our knowledge engine, helps design the hardware behind them.

Every platform is described in the same seven slots — what it does, why it matters, how it works, its parameters, its applications, its evidence — and each has an instrument you can turn a knob on. Those instruments compute textbook models live; none of them is measured data. How to read a claim →

Platform 01

Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy

Ultra-low power, ultra-compact impedance measurement. The world’s smallest, widest-band (0.1–200 kHz) Cortex‑M4 intelligent impedance chip.

A single-frequency reading tells you the electrode changed. A spectrum tells you which part of it changed — solution, interface, or diffusion — because each lives in a different decade of frequency. That separation is the difference between a sensor that drifts and a measurement you can trust.

How it works

Impedance explorer

Randles equivalent circuit · 0.1 Hz – 200 kHz

Curves are computed from a textbook equivalent-circuit model, not measured data. When analyte binds to the immobilised antibody, the electrode surface is partly blocked and Rct rises — the widening semicircle is the signal. Drag the plot to inspect a frequency.

Frequency-domain analysis

  • Fourier transform converts complex time-domain electrical signals into analysable frequency-domain data — like a prism separating white light into a spectrum.

  • Picomolar sensitivity. High-precision biosensor applications detect minute changes in electrical resistance when target proteins bind to immobilised antibodies, enabling early diagnosis before symptoms appear.

  • Non-linear read-out. Machine learning reads the whole spectrum — raw magnitude and phase shift together — rather than a hand-fitted circuit, which is what removes the expert from the loop.

From electrode to inference

The same spectrum that reveals a binding event also carries the electrode’s own state. Separating the two is where the model earns its keep — and why the analysis runs on the chip rather than in a lab.

Platform 02

Bio-Sensor

Electrochemical immunoassay, photothermal PCR, and cold-chain-free LAMP — next-generation molecular diagnostics designed to work outside the laboratory.

A molecular result that takes a day and a courier is a different product from one that takes twenty minutes at the bedside — even when the chemistry is identical. Getting there means attacking the two things that keep the laboratory big: the heater and the incubation.

Photothermal PCR

  • Plasmon resonance heating. Light hitting metal nanoparticles excites surface electrons, converting energy to localised heat instantly — precise thermal cycling without bulky hardware.

  • Under 250 g, under 25 minutes. From sample to smartphone, wherever the sample is taken.

  • Multiplex. Viruses and bacteria on one platform, with laboratory-grade accuracy at the point of care.

Electrochemical immunoassay

  • Smartphone-integrated. Antigen–antibody reactions become electrical signals. Apply a sample to a disposable strip; read the result immediately.

  • Thousands of times more sensitive than standard ELISA in the sandwich format — detecting virus even during the incubation period.

  • CARETRIX condenses laboratory equipment into a desktop device, bringing quantitative analysis to primary clinics without large-scale facilities.

Platform 03

AI Analysis

Precise biometric data processing — from fingerprint restoration to multimodal biosignal integration for security and healthcare.

Most biometric systems discard whatever is not clean. The evidence that matters is usually the part that was thrown away: a partial print, a smudged one, two prints on top of each other. Recovering structure from those is a different problem from matching a good scan, and it is the one worth solving.

How it works

Ridge lab

Procedural ridge fields · two problems, drawn

Both tabs are symbolic illustrations. The ridge fields are generated procedurally — no real print is shown — and the “recovered” panel is simply the field the generator started from. This shows what the task is, not how TruePrint does it, and makes no claim about accuracy.

Push it far enough and the left panel stops looking like a print at all. The right panel is what a restoration step has to put back.

TruePrint

  • Ridge restoration. AI reconstructs clear ridges from noisy, incomplete latent prints — recovering evidence traditional forensic methods cannot process.

  • Layer separation. A world-first technique that unmixes overlapping fingerprints into distinct individual layers.

  • Multimodal. Fingerprint, fundus imaging and EEG converge on one platform for next-generation security and diagnostics.

Platform 04

BEAT Connected

A connected bio-electric platform for the nervous system. It listens — heart-rate variability, nerve-conduction timing, a drawn trace — lets a model infer state, and answers with precisely phased stimulation across wirelessly synchronised nodes.

Open-loop stimulation runs to a timer and the body learns the pattern. Closing the loop means two hard things at once: measuring the nervous system well enough to decide, and delivering a pattern that never quite repeats. Both are timing problems, which is why they are solved with phase rather than amplitude.

How it works

Sense → infer → stimulate

  • Closed loop from heart to head. A wearable ECG sensor streams heart-rate variability; a model estimates the likelihood of an anxiety episode and, only then, shapes a cranial electrical-stimulation pattern — stimulation as a response to a measurement, not to a timer.

  • Stereo, phase-controlled nodes. Two or more stimulation nodes are linked and synchronised wirelessly; the controller drives them with deliberately different phases, with adjustable delay and balance — so the body is never offered one repeating pattern to habituate to.

  • Nerve function as a timing measurement. Simultaneous stimuli on two neural pathways are phase-shifted until the brain perceives them as one; that shift is a relative conduction time. Skin-impedance dependence is removed, so the reading reflects the nerve, not the electrode contact.

  • Psychological state from a drawn trace. A companion app shows an image, lets it fade, and asks the user to redraw it; reaction time, overlap and shape are analysed by AI, which then proposes coping strategies.
