Withings Body Scan1 Revolutionizes Home Health Monitoring with the Ability to Record a 6-Lead ECG,
Assess Nerve Activity and Measure Segmental Body Composition
Connected health station helps users get a handle on health with the ability to measure health vitals andaccess to personal health plans based on behavioral science

Las Vegas, NV – January 3, 2022 – Withings, the pioneer of the connected health movement, brings the smart
scale category it created in 2009 one step further with Body Scan. Body Scan will provide daily analysis ofbiomarkers associated with common health conditions. With the ability to monitor segmental bodycomposition, heart rate, and vascular age, it will further advance the smart scale category. With measurementsthat will assess nerve activity and heart rhythm using a 6-lead ECG, Body Scan goes beyond weight management
to become an unprecedented in-home connected health station that can help users take proactive control overtheir health.
Winner of three CES 2022 Innovation Honoree Awards, Body Scan will also allow users to access coaching,clinical specialists and personalized, holistic plans in-app to help them reach their health goals. Developed withspecialists in cardiovascular, neurologic, and metabolic conditions, these programs will provide users with
important insights based on well-known metrics and the ability to be connected with medical specialists in caseof health concerns.
Body Scan consists of a single high strength tempered glass platform encompassing a retractable handle. Body
Scan contains four weight sensors and 14 ITO electrodes within the platform and 4 stainless steel electrodes inthe handle for 6-lead ECG and segmental body composition analysis. It offers a year-long battery life andincludes a larger high resolution 3.2” LCD color screen that displays stats.
“Withings created the connected health category back in 2009 and today is proud to be the number one selling
smart scale manufacturer in the United States, helping millions of users manage their weight,” said Mathieu
Letombe, Withings CEO. “With Body Scan, we will turn the morning weigh-in into a sophisticated home healthcheck with access to holistic health data and personal health programs created by medical professionals. We
will empower our users with the ability to take meaningful actions based on medical-grade data, adding a new
dimension to ongoing lifestyle and chronic condition management through the ultimate in-home healthexperience.”
Best-in-class weight monitoring and segmental body composition
Body Scan will provide a precise (accurate to 0.1lbs / 50 grams) and advanced weight management experience
thanks to its advanced weight sensors and unique retractable handle form factor. For the first time, a Withings
scale will integrate the breakthrough technology of segmental body composition allowing a never-seen levelof precision for body composition monitoring.

With electrodes placed in the base of the device and in the handle, Body Scan will use multi-frequency
Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) to measure overall body composition. It will measure whole-body fat
and water percentage, visceral fat, muscle and bone mass, and extracellular and intracellular water and provide
readings for individual body parts, including torso, arms, and legs.
A very low level, safe electrical signal is sent from the electrodes on the scale and within the handgrip. Withings’
scientifically developed algorithm identifies resistance, known as impedance, to measure precise bodycomposition in less than three seconds.
Often used by health experts and sports professionals, segmental body composition allows the smallest
changes in body composition to be identified and monitored over time. Doing so identifies fat mass distribution,
informs users of potential health risks associated with localized fat findings, and efficiently spots muscle
imbalances. Withings democratizes this technology bringing it out of the sports lab and into the home.
Nerve Activity Assessment
Developed with experts from Impeto Medical, Body Scan will track sweat gland activity in the feet and provide
daily assessment of small nerve activity. The measurement is designed to be performed in under 30 seconds
by applying a small direct current via the electrodes located in the plate. It will provide a reading as an easy-tounderstand score (computed from an Electrochemical Skin Conductance) delivered to the user via the Withings
App.
Sweat is triggered by the small nerves that are innervating the sweat glands. Sudomotor function can beevaluated by measuring the ability of the feet sweat glands to release chloride ions in response to an electricalstimulus. An impaired sudomotor function is a sign of reduced sweat gland innervation linked to a degenerationof small nerve fibers.
Lifestyle changes, such as healthy eating and getting regular activity, can be effective in improving nerve activity
for a healthy lifestyle. To help users adopt healthy habits and affect change, the Withings app also provides
access to actionable insights and personalized plans.
Every Day At Home Heart HealthWith cardiovascular conditions often linked to weight issues, Body Scan is designed to seamlessly offer a varietyof cardiovascular measurements at every weigh-in. The upcoming features include: heart rate, ECG recordings,and vascular age.
Body Scan will record a 6-lead ECG via two sets of electrodes located on each side of the handle and one within
the base of the scale. The proprietary embedded algorithm is designed to identify and track heart patterns
associated with atrial fibrillation, allowing results to be displayed directly on the device’s LCD screen and theaccompanying app. Readings can be stored to show trends over time and shared with medical professionals
from the app.
Vascular Age will provide a daily, easy-to-understand assessment of arterial health and overall wellness. It
accomplishes this by showing people how their cardiovascular health compares to the norms expected within
their age bracket, using an estimate of their inner vascular age. Vascular Age is a patented technology
developed by Withings.
End-to-end Health Management Solution
Combining groundbreaking in-home medical metrics with in-app access to medical professionals andpersonalized information will make Body Scan a central part of a user's health journey. Leveraging Withings’
existing remote patient interfaces, the subscription service will allow users to connect with medical specialists
for advice and consultation while providing clinical teams with data in real-time.
Spanning wellness topics including nutrition, sleep, exercise, and stress management, the personalized healthplans will also offer a wealth of information to help motivate users to make behavioral and lifestyle changes
that improve outcomes and achieve health goals.
