AppYea Inc (OTC: APYP) received Extention confirmation for strategic patents in the UK, Germany, and France.
SleepX is an Israeli research and development company recently acquired by AppYea. It had come up with an advanced product to monitor and treat sleep apnea and snoring. This technology is protected by several international patents and the company plans to start serial production in 2022. As of now, the company is involved in the development and commercialization of its flagship product DreamIT.
This patent is one of the strategic assets of the company, as it protects the rights to use a microphone of any type and sound analysis for the purpose of identifying and diagnosing sleep apnea. The most common method to perform a test for apnea diagnosis requires overnight hospitalization in a sleep laboratory. But AppYea’s SleepX PRO solution will make it possible to perform a sleep test every night using a smartphone app only, without physical contact with the patient.
The company will apply for a 510(K) approval to the FDA for its SleepX PRO solution for contactless detection of sleep apnea to be performed through the Artificial Intelligence (AI) analysis of breathing during sleep.
