"By using the scale's Impedance Cardiography (ICG) and 6-lead ECG, it measures cardiac efficiency, cardiac reactivity, ECG, and heart age. Its proprietary AI model assesses a user's hypertension risk and potential risk of glycemic dysregulation. The scale's pulse wave velocity function measures arterial stiffness.

"The smart scale allows users "to capture more biomarkers in 90 seconds than any wearable can collect in weeks," Eric Carreel, founder and president of Withings, says in a press release. Like other health technology devices, the scale begins by establishing baselines for these biomarkers and then detects deviations as they emerge. The scale delivers a Health Trajectory score to rate overall wellness."
Withings' Body Scan 2 is a second-generation smart scale that measures more than 60 biomarkers in roughly 90 seconds. The device uses Impedance Cardiography (ICG) and a 6-lead ECG to assess cardiac efficiency, cardiac reactivity, ECG, and heart age. A proprietary AI model evaluates hypertension risk and potential glycemic dysregulation, while pulse wave velocity measures arterial stiffness. An ultra-high-frequency Bioimpedance Spectroscopy (BIS) measures active cell mass and metabolic efficiency. The scale establishes biometric baselines, detects deviations over time, provides a Health Trajectory score, and seeks FDA clearance for select metrics.
