What our users have to say

University of Milano-Bicocca

Professor Francesca Gasparini

Empatica provides raw data for several days so I can monitor the physiological subjects continuously, during daily life. The major advantage is the possibility of managing several subjects at the same time.

Massachusetts General Hospital

Clinical Research Coordinator

Best wearable there is! One of the only that reliably measures EDA!

University of Aberdeen

John Barrow, Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education

It is really one of the few solutions that would allow recording of this kind of data.

Thomas More University of Applied Sciences

Dr. Nele De Witte, Digital Mental Health researcher

The Empatica hardware has allowed for mobile data collection and also multisite and cross-border collaboration. EmbracePlus is a comfortable device with which you can collect raw and fully accessible data.
