Aithre Illyrian II SpO2 Stick It on a Headset

The Bluetooth Illyrian II combines multiple biometric sensors in one flat tapered-wing measuring pad. It’s designed to comfortably fit between a headset’s ear cup and the earlobe, while the main electronic device mounts to a convenient spot on the headset.

The Illyrian full-time wearable SpO2 sensor was one of Aithre Aviation’s first products, and it has been an important component in Aithre’s app (and panel display) cockpit biometric monitoring suite. 

Unlike finger pulse oximeters that require an alert pilot to use, the Illyrian’s continuously wearable earlobe pulse ox sensor fits under a headset ear cup (it can also be worn on the forehead with a sport headband) and keeps tabs on SpO2 levels without any pilot intervention. The device automatically transmits a range of health data via Bluetooth to the Aithre Connect smartphone app and Aithre’s Healthview avionics system, if installed.
