January 08 2024 - 4:30PM
Gentherm (NASDAQ: THRM), the global market leader of
innovative thermal management and pneumatic comfort technologies
for the automotive industry and a leader in medical patient
temperature management systems, today unveiled WellSense™, a
software defined consumer experience that delivers customized
in-cabin comfort sensations that promote wellness and well-being.
WellSense is making its global debut during the 2024 Consumer
Electronics Show (CES). The technology leverages science-based
physiology research as the foundation for proprietary software that
orchestrates heating, cooling, lumbar and massage comfort
effectors. WellSense delivers enhanced wellness and well-being
sensations in product offerings suitable for software defined
vehicles (SDVs) and over-the-air (OTA) feature upgrades for all
vehicle configurations.
“Trends are shifting towards consumers using their vehicles as a
third living space, offering an additional revenue opportunity for
OEMs to address consumer health and wellness needs,” said Phil
Eyler, President and CEO of Gentherm. “The launch of WellSense is
the next evolution of our software enabled technologies that
positions the Company at the nexus of health, wellness, comfort,
and energy efficiency.”
The WellSense software development kit (SDK) can be combined
with additional vehicle features like in-cabin audio, visual and
aromatic stimulation to deliver unique sensations that go beyond
traditional comfort regulation to help promote individual wellness
and well-being.
“We see opportunities at the intersection of the software
defined vehicles market and consumer desire for total well-being to
deliver health and wellness-based experiences leveraging our
expertise in thermal and pneumatic comfort,” said Vishnu Sundaram,
Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer. “WellSense is
not only a scalable solution that fits future SDV architecture, but
also a system that delivers a symphony of sensations that promote
passenger relaxation and rejuvenation.”
WellSense currently offers a library of scientifically designed
experiences around the following themes:
- Physical Well-being: Utilizes heating and
massage to stimulate muscles, ease muscle tension and relax the
mind to support lower back health and females during their
menstrual journey.
- Cognitive Well-being: Builds upon previously
announced alertness concepts to coordinate thermal and pneumatic
technology to provide solutions to help keep a driver alert.
- Healthy Lifestyle: Helps promote a healthy
lifestyle for all, and in particular the fitness community by
offering pre and post workout solutions. Further support for a
healthy lifestyle is offered through experiences to help target
stress management.
Gentherm will showcase its innovative products and technologies
at their invitation-only booth at Paris Las Vegas from January
9-11, 2024.
