DIA
DIA Sensor is a startup dedicated to expanding the potential of wearable and portable sensing technology to monitor health biomarkers in real time. Founded by Sloane Tilley and her team, the company aims to develop non-invasive sensors that measure biomarkers such as cortisol, electrolytes, and other analytes from sweat and saliva, providing real-time health data to improve mental, physical, and emotional wellness. Their mission is to create innovative, non-invasive health monitoring solutions that can be used daily to enhance individual and public health.

Products
Wearable arm-sleeve sensor system for cortisol monitoring
A wearable sleeve system that houses small electrochemical sensors for continuous or frequent monitoring of cortisol from sweat; designed for comfortable extended wear and discreet form factor.
Bench-top saliva analyzer with disposable test strips
Tabletop analyzer that accepts a disposable saliva test strip and provides rapid measurements of hormones, electrolytes and inflammatory markers from <1 mL saliva with results viewable via a mobile app.
Mobile application and cloud backend for secure result visualization
Smartphone application and backend services designed to receive, display and securely transmit sensor measurement data.
SBIR Phase II R&D project for environmental robustness of salivary sensor
Funded R&D project to adapt salivary cortisol sensor performance across varied environmental conditions in collaboration with defense research organizations.
