American Marconi Wireless News - Introducing Lumia 2: Smart Earrings that Track Blood Flow to Your Head - Now Made For Everyone

BOSTON, MA / ACCESS Newswire / November 18, 2025 / Lumia today announced the launch of Lumia 2, the world's first smart earrings that continuously track real-time blood flow to your head, giving anyone instant insight into how blood flow affects energy, focus, and mental clarity. Originally developed with Johns Hopkins, Duke, and Harvard researchers to help patients with chronic blood flow disorders like POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) and Long COVID-19, Lumia is now available to everyone for the first time.

Indistinguishable from fine jewelry, Lumia 2 can be worn as huggie hoops, cuffs, and studs offered in gold, silver, and clear finishes, and also attaches to any push-back earring using patent-pending SwitchBack^™ technology. The cuff does not require a pierced ear.

Lumia 2 packs nearly six years of engineering breakthroughs and clinical research all into one tiny smart earring back. Lumia is the world's smallest wearable, weighing less than 1 gram and five times smaller than AirPods - made possible through the team's decades of experience pioneering the world's smallest wearables, from Bose sleepbuds to Lumia 1.

Beyond blood-flow tracking, Lumia 2 adds basic wearable features like sleep, temperature, menstrual cycle, and readiness tracking - all with greater accuracy and continuity thanks to the ideal sensing location in the ear. It does everything standard wearables can do, only better, while freeing you to wear your favorite watches and rings.

"This is what comes after smart rings," said Daniel Lee, co-founder and CEO of Lumia. "Just as Oura made rings smart, we've made earrings smart. Smart Earrings are the ultimate wearable form factor with new capabilities possible only in the ear, unlocking meaningful medical use case potential in a consumer-first form factor."

The company is also announcing $7 million in additional investment funding from J2 Ventures, BonAngels Venture Partners, and prominent angel investors, as well as $5.1 million in government contracts and grants. Funding to date now totals $17.2 million.

How it Works

The Lumia Core smart earring back houses Lumia's second-gen PreciseLight^™ sensor along with processors, a battery, and more health sensors. Sitting close to the heart and brain, it captures health signals impossible to measure at the wrist or finger.

In addition, Lumia offers performance-optimized Lumia Earrings that are low-profile, sleep-friendly, and made with truly non-allergenic materials like platinum and titanium. The earrings feature a new earring back locking system to prevent accidental loss, and a novel swappable battery pack system so Lumia doesn't have to be taken off to charge. The result: earrings that can stay on 24/7, designed for sleeping in any position, showering, dressing up, or exercising.

Each battery pack supports 5 to 8 days of battery life. The Core is worn only on the left ear, while Lumia Earrings are sold in pairs.

The Power of Blood Flow Tracking

Everyone feels lightheaded, brain fog, or drained at times, but most have no idea why. Heart rate is normal. Blood pressure is normal. Everything looks objectively "normal" even if you feel awful. Lumia changes that.

Clinically demonstrated at Johns Hopkins, Duke, and Harvard (e.g. Pearson r=0.91 with ultrasound), Lumia's continuous blood flow tracking shows you what's really going on in your body throughout the day.

Blood flow changes with almost every lifestyle factor - from hydration and diet to posture, movement, and sleep. Lumia illuminates those changes, connecting the dots between what's happening to your body and how you feel, so you can optimize more days to feel your best.

"While we've been building for people with chronic blood flow disorders, our team members without blood flow disorders have discovered fascinating blood flow patterns that have changed how we live for the better," Lee added. "From seeing how the way you sit affects your blood flow and cognitive performance, to visualizing the consequences of your carb-heavy lunch choice in your post-lunch dip, to seeing how morning exercise can boost your circulation for the rest of the day - the transformative personal revelations have been endless."

Lumia's continuous blood flow tracking science has been published in leading peer-reviewed journals, including the Journal of the American Heart Association and the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.

Availability

Lumia 2 will be supported on both iOS and Android, and will be available in the United States and Canada to start, with more countries to follow.
