- unlocking performance potential through real-time core body temperature monitoring and data
For Immediate Release
Zuerich 20th January 2024 - CORE announces its partnership with the professional women’s racing team Human Powered Health, to provide riders and their sports scientists with real-time core body temperature monitoring and data through the use of CORE sensors and data analytics.
CORE is the first and only non-invasive wearable that provides a decisive edge over the competition by providing athletes with real-time data by measuring core body temperature, skin temperature, heat strain index and heat strain score.
Human Powered Health riders will use the CORE sensor throughout the season to improve their performance through optimising training conditions by employing various cooling and temperature optimization strategies but also, to prepare for racing in adverse conditions. Through the use of CORE sensors in training, athletes can stay cooler for longer on race day, leading to radically better performance in either hot or cold weather.
"We are excited to have this opportunity to play an integral role in women's cycling,” said Ross McGraw, VP and Head of CORE. “We aim to push the boundaries and definitions of athletic potential and performance. With our shared passion for the sport and innovative use of data, particularly as it applies to the unique physiology and adaptations of female athletes, we look forward to the season ahead," McGraw ended.”
“We’re excited to see how CORE can help our athletes perform,” says Arne Dedrie, Team Coach. “Hot conditions increase the physiological strain on the body and can result in a marked decrease in performance. Increased brain temperature, for example, influences the quality of tactical decisions during the race. The CORE sensor can quantify this source of fatigue and guides us during training interventions meant to optimise the thermoregulatory capacity of our athletes.”

About CORE
CORE is a division of greenteg AG and provides expertise and technology for thermal management in sports. The CORE sensor is a real-time core body temperature built with the advanced, Swiss-made Calera thermal energy transfer sensor which provides medical-grade accuracy. It is the only wearable solution that allows athletes to continually monitor accurate core body temperature data without the need for an ingested or inserted thermometer.
Zürich based greenteg AG manufacture and supply the thermal energy transfer sensor which are also used across a host of applications beyond sports including medical use, photonics, thermal efficiency measurements in construction and workplace health and safety.
