BodyCap e-Celsius Performance pill
An accurate, reliable and innovative core temperature monitoring solution
The e-Celsius Performance pill, is a miniaturised ingestible electronic pill that wirelessly transmits a continuous measurement of gastrointestinal temperature. The data are stored on a monitor called e-Viewer Performance.
This device shows alerts if the measurement is outside the desired range. The activation box is used to turn the pill on from standby mode and connect the e-Celsius Performance pill with the monitor for data collection in either real time or by recovery from the internal memory of e-Celsius Performance.
Each monitor can be used with up to three pills at once to enable extended use. The monitors interface allows the user to download data to a PC/ Mac for storage. The pill is safe, non-invasive and easy to use, leaving the gastric system after one or two days, depending on individual transit time.

RESEARCH
Clinical research
BodyCap devices allow continuous and reliable monitoring of physiological parameters and offer to Clinical research efficient measurement systems.
Chronobiology and Sleep
BodyCap devices are non invasive and enable monitoring with no influence on experimentation situation.
Sport & Ergonomics
Sport physiology
BodyCap devices preserve person mobility and allow continuous monitoring with no influence on athletes.
Effort hyperthermia
BodyCap devices provide accurate information to measure the level of hyperthermia for elite athletes during international competition. Alerts are triggered when measurement is outside predefined range.
Performance optimization
Data collected thanks to BodyCap devices enable new strategy development to train athletes to perform efficiently despite extreme weather conditions.
Prevention of hypothermia
BodyCap devices are used to monitor physiological parameters of elite athletes and to evaluate and reduce risks of hypothermia.
{tab Applications}
Main applications are:
- Heat stroke prevention
- Jet lag and performance
- Core temperature control
- Hypothermia prevention
- Performance assessment
- Training/recovery process optimisation
Risk reduction
Risk reduction for people in extreme situations, such as elite athletes. During exercise in a hot environment, thermal stress is amplified by the external temperature and the environment’s humidity. The saturation of the body’s thermoregulation mechanism can quickly cause hyperthermia to levels that may cause nausea, fainting or death.
Performance optimisation for elite athletes
This ingestible pill leaves the user fully mobile. The device keeps a continuous record of temperature during training session, competition and during the recovery phase. The data can then be used to correlate thermoregulation with performances. This enable the development of customised training protocols for each athlete.
e-Celsius Performance can be used for all sports, including water sports. Its application is best suited to sports that are physically intensive like football, rugby, cycling, long distance running, tennis or those that take place in environments with extreme temperature conditions, like diving or skiing.
