How does Prysm iO work?
The process is surprisingly sophisticated:
- You place your fingertip on the scanner
- The scan takes about 15 seconds.
- There is no needle, blood sample, or pain.
- Light shines into your skin
- The scanner sends specific wavelengths of light into the skin of your finger.
- Carotenoid molecules absorb and scatter light in characteristic ways.
- Spectral analysis
- Prysm iO uses patent-pending Spectral Rai Technology to collect over 700,000 hyperspectral absorption measurements during a scan.
- An AI algorithm analyzes these optical signals to estimate the amount of carotenoids stored in your skin.
- A Prysm Score is generated
- The app provides a personalized nutrition or antioxidant score.
- The score is intended to reflect your antioxidant status and can be tracked over time
