Lifeline is a low-cost, home-fabricated blood analyzer for essential biomarkers, built for students, clinics, and communities.
The world faces a critical gap in diagnostic access. Early biomarker detection saves lives, but current solutions are too expensive and inaccessible for the communities that need them most.
Over 4 billion people lack access to basic diagnostic testing. Early detection of biomarkers can save lives, but current solutions are too expensive and inaccessible.
Traditional blood testing requires expensive lab equipment and trained technicians, making it inaccessible to communities that need it most.
Rural clinics, disaster zones, and developing regions often lack the infrastructure for comprehensive blood analysis, leaving patients without critical health information.
Students and researchers need affordable access to blood testing for learning and innovation, but current solutions are prohibitively expensive.
Lifeline combines microfluidic technology, optical sensing, and edge AI to create a professional-grade blood analyzer with intelligent result interpretation that anyone can build and use.
Compact optical reader that fits in your hand. No bulky lab equipment required - take blood testing anywhere.
Single-use microfluidic test strips with colorimetric assays. Simple, safe, and designed for one-time use.
Built-in optical sensor analyzes color changes in the test strips to measure biomarker concentrations accurately.
Wirelessly connect to your phone or tablet for detailed results, data logging, and remote monitoring capabilities.
Fully open-source design with detailed instructions. Build your own Lifeline reader from readily available components.
Fine-tuned Gemma 3n multimodal model provides intelligent result interpretation with lifestyle context, running fully on-device for privacy.
Complete bill of materials costs less than $110, making professional-grade blood testing accessible to everyone.
Four simple steps to professional-grade blood analysis. No training required, no complex procedures.
Use the included lancet to prick your finger and collect a small drop of blood. Apply it to the designated area on the test strip.
Place the prepared test strip into the Lifeline reader cartridge slot. The device will automatically detect the strip and begin analysis.
The built-in optical sensor measures color changes in the test strip, converting them into quantitative biomarker measurements.
View your biomarker results directly on the device screen or connect via Bluetooth to see detailed data on your phone.
Watch how easy it is to use Lifeline for blood testing with AI-powered result interpretation.
Lifeline supports essential biomarkers using proven colorimetric methods, paired with a fine-tuned Gemma 3n multimodal AI model for intelligent result interpretation. Fully open-source design with <$110 bill of materials.

Complete bill of materials costs less than $110, making professional-grade blood testing accessible to students, researchers, and communities worldwide.
Lifeline is designed for the communities that need it most. From classrooms to disaster zones, we're making professional blood testing accessible everywhere.
Students can learn about blood analysis hands-on, understanding the science behind diagnostic testing.
Rapid deployment in emergency situations where traditional lab infrastructure is unavailable.
Bringing essential diagnostic capabilities to communities with limited healthcare access.
Researchers and makers can prototype and test blood analysis systems affordably.
"Lifeline has transformed how we teach blood analysis in our bioengineering lab. Students can now build and use their own diagnostic devices, gaining hands-on experience that was previously impossible due to cost constraints."
