MEDIROM Partners with Sanei Electronics for MOTHER Tracker Manufacturing
MEDIROM Healthcare Technologies Inc., headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, announced that the Company has entered into a Master Manufacturing Agreement with Sanei Electronics Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan, with respect to the production of the Company’s MOTHER Tracker®, an activity tracker, and has commenced preparations for production and shipment. Sanei is subcontracting with Canon Electronics Co., Ltd., Chichibu, Japan for part of the production.
MOTHER Tracker® is the world's first smart bracelet equipped with the patented "thermoelectric energy” technology invented by Matrix Industries, Inc., located in Menlo Park, California. It allows the device to be powered and driven semi-permanently by the body heat of its wearer, eliminating the need for separate charging. This overcomes the longstanding challenge of wearable devices with limited charge duration. Launched by the Company in 2020 at CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in the United States, MEDIROM believes that MOTHER Tracker® is currently the only activity tracker designed to measure heart rate, body temperature, activity, sleep, and calories burned 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, without the need to remove for separate charging.
