User Guide

WELCOME TO

SCANADU SCOUT™

The Scanadu Scout™ is a non-invasive

system measuring the following physiological

parameters: temperature, heart rate, pulse

oximetry and blood pressure. The Scanadu

Scout™ obtains these vital signs from a gentle

touch on the forehead and sends them via

Bluetooth to the user’s smartphone.

Scanadu believes there is an unmet need in

healthcare to develop products and services

for consumers to better engage in their own

health. The Scanadu Scout™ is designed to

meet that need, aiming to be the change agent

of healthcare.

We Are The Last Generation to

Know So Little About Our Health
