Withings Announces BeamO The Revolutionary At-home Health Checkup●●●The First Multiscope Revolutionizing At-home Checkups and Augmenting Telehealth Visits
Temperature Is Typically The Only Health Scan Regularly Performed At Home. BeamO Set To
Become The "New Thermometer" Of The Future In Every Home Able To Take Temperature And
Observe Heart And Lung Health
BeamO Fuses The Capabilities Of A Thermometer, Electrocardiogram, Oximeter, And Stethoscope
In A Home Heart Device For Both Heart And Lungs MonitoringIssy-les-Moulineaux – January 7, 2023 - Withings, a global leader in connected health, today unveiled
BeamO1 – a disruptive 4-in-1 health checkup device. This advanced “multiscope” will place the ability tomeasure core health vitals taken during physician visits into the palm of the hand and will become
available in the United States following FDA Clearance. For the first time, BeamO will combine ECG,oximeter, stethoscope, and thermometer sensors to turn the humble thermometer into a powerful tool
for regular monitoring of heart and lung health. Portable and smaller than a smartphone, it is designed
to help individuals and families perform at-home checkups and to substantially improve the quality oftelehealth visits.
“BeamO is a transformative multiscope device. Once, body temperature was the only health scanroutinely taken at home. BeamO will revolutionize the measurement of the core vitals carried out during
medical visits from the comfort of one's own home. This crucial data will provide a vital overview ofoverall health or warning signs of potential areas of concern. Instead of measuring these stats a coupleof times a year in a clinical setting, it will be possible to assess them every day.” Said Eric Carreel,Founder and President of Withings. “BeamO will be the thermometer of the future, providing the ability
to assess temperature and observe the state of the heart and lungs.”“Post-pandemic telemedicine is commonplace. While convenient and cost-effective, remote visits lacked
the ability for health professionals to carry out the routine checks they perform in person. BeamO will
make this possible remotely with a device that combines the functionality of four different pieces ofmedical equipment.” Carreel continued.
Powerful Health Scan Powered by Multiscope Analysis
BeamO is packed with sensors that beam light waves to interpret blood flow patterns and temperature,
as well as acoustic information. It performs multiple functions in one handheld device:●1

Hand to Heart: - Photoplethysmography (PPG) and electrodes along its sides allow BeamO toperform blood oxygenation (SpO2), and heart rate readings simultaneously while also
conducting a medical-grade 1-lead ECG. A simple light grip of BeamO initiates measurementsthat can be viewed by users in real-time on its animated colored LED display.

This device is not yet available for sale or distribution in the US as its effectiveness and safety have not beenreviewed by the US FDA. Caution: Investigational Device, Limited by Federal or United States.

●●Raising the Temperature: BeamO conducts accurate and stable core body temperature readings
with a noninvasive scan of the temporal artery. An advancement on the Withings Thermo sensor
technology, the second-generation hotspot sensor is a mono-element thermophile that narrows
the focal area of the infrared beam for contactless measurements. This increases the sensitivityof the scan, making it more robust to changes in distance from the skin or movement.
Hearing Health: A cutting-edge digital stethoscope, BeamO captures chest or back acoustic
sound waves through a Piezoelectric disc. With intuitive tutorials, users achieve precise heart
and lung measurements. Equipped with a USB-C to jack adapter, results can be heard throughheadphones and seamlessly transferred, stored, and shared in the app. During telehealthsessions, audio streaming enables physicians to guide device placement and focus on specificareas of interest.

With these capabilities, BeamO will conduct a 4-in-1 health check-up of body temperature, heart, andlung health in under a minute. It will be able to alert users to possible fever and infection and will detect
possible cardiovascular issues, including atrial fibrillation (AfiB) (following FDA-clearance), which is oneof the most prevalent forms of arrhythmias, and provides alerts in case heart rates are abnormal2.
A Complete Health Record, Secured

By automatically syncing with the Withings app through Wi-Fi, BeamO creates comprehensive healthrecords over time.. To better track individual and family health journeys, Withings also introduces newcapabilities within the Withings App for BeamO and its entire family of connected health products.
It makes it even easier to track health stats over time that can be recorded and shared. With theWithings app, users can view their full history of health readings along with interpretations of theirmeanings and actionable advice. Family medical health history can also be uploaded and, wherenecessary, shared with physicians and other family members. It also allows multiple family members tocreate individual profiles to use and share Withings devices.
In addition, for the first time, the Withings App allows users to upload details of any medications theyare taking, set alerts and reminders to administer at the appropriate times, and log usage and side
effects that can be shared with doctors to manage dosage and effectiveness.
Availability
A CES Innovations Award Honoree, BeamO will be demoed during CES at the Withings Booth (LVCC NH#8637). BeamO will retail at $249.95 in June 2024, following FDA-clearance of its ECG capability2.
