January 3, 2023 | PR NewswireEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Opteev Technologies, Inc. announced it is debuting at CES 2023 an affordable breath analyzer, ViraWarn, that detects COVID-19, Influenza, and RSV and provides a result in less than 60 seconds. The device, which is multiple-use and rechargeable, will be on display at the influential technology event happening this week in Las Vegas, NV. Press will be able to get 'hands on' with ViraWarn for the first time while Opteev demonstrates this remarkable new way to self-test at CES Unveiled on Tuesday, January 3rd at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center from 5 – 8:30 pm and at the Las Vegas Convention Center, North Hall, Booth #8317 from January 5th – 8th.
CES is an annual trade show that features the latest products and trends across all aspects of the consumer electronics industry. ViraWarn, which will be debuting in the Health & Wellness Hall at CES 2023, was submitted to the FDA this past summer for review as a new easy-to-use and multiple-use test for COVID-19 and other respiratory illnesses.
ViraWarn uses a silk-based biosensor that attracts the electrical discharge of respiratory viruses coupled with an artificial intelligence processor to filter out any potential inaccuracies. Extremely user-friendly, users simply turn it on, blow twice into the mouthpiece, and an LED notification light will indicate a positive or negative result in under 60 seconds. ViraWarn is reusable and comes with multiple biosensor replacement cartridges that only require being replaced after a positive result or after a period of 2 – 3 weeks of daily usage.
"We're looking forward to debuting ViraWarn to the public at CES this week," said Conrad Bessemer, President and Co-Founder of Opteev. "ViraWarn is designed to allow users an ultra-fast and convenient way to know if they're spreading a dangerous respiratory virus so they can stop the spread and save lives in the process. As COVID, RSV, and Influenza are continuing to surge, we're eager to bring ViraWarn to market so consumers can easily blow into a personal device and immediately find out if they're positive or negative."
ViraWarn is currently under review by the FDA and will hit the market once it becomes approved. In the meantime, updates on ViraWarn's release date will be available by signing up on Opteev's website at www.virawarn.com or by visiting Opteev's booth at CES 2023.
