Light tracker: The product is a small sensor (18 g light) with which Nambaya makes scientifically based performance and sleep analyses. @nambaya Who are Your target group(s)?
Leadership Teams
Atheletes
Health and fitness enthusiasts
In times of corona and the digital presentations, some of my clients decided to roll out the information that I normally share with leadership groups to a more junior level as well.
Please tell us more about the technology behind your product. With the help of a high-resolution ekg and accelerometer, we make your lifestyle choices transparent. The sensor records your vital parameters like heart rate, breathing rate, heart rate variability, sleep, and HRV with up to 1000 Hz. We can show you if your current performance and recovery strategies really work for you – or even don´t. We can quantify your
cardiac fitness
stress load
sleep quality and
movement activity
in order to develop individual training programs and regeneration strategies.
What problems did you encounter and solve during the development process? The initial struggle was definitely the UX. Medical software is still working with UX designs of the late '70s and '80s. Finding ways to bring across the action steps for the desired behavior changes is the holy grail.

Enhancing performance has always been the focus of Lutz Graumann’s work. Starting his medical career in 1994 he soon realized that his desires in the professional field were close to those of his private life: sports. Challenges dominated his work and private life after accepting a full scholarship of the German Bundeswehr. Working with different pro athletes, special forces, fighter pilots, and leadership groups, he has learned that training methods and nutritional concepts have varying impacts on the individual. Dr Graumann integrates sports and military medicine and cutting-edge technology to create data-based movement, nutrition, recovery, and mindset strategies for work and play.
Market trends: Where is your target market heading – and how do you know? We started as an expert solution for a small target audience and realized that recovery and sleep is a pain point that touches a majority of the population. Therefore we explore the pharmacies as new and/or renewed players in the field of lifestyle diagnostics. Sleep measurements will be the starting point for the journey to sleep and recovery improvements. Together with the brand Qalmis and the sleep experts André Alesi and Prof. Froböse we will bring quality tested solutions for your sleep and sleep environment into big pharmacies in Germany in Q3 of 2021.
Which companies and people are doing great things in the same space as yourself? The sleep experts André Alesi and Prof. Dr. Ingo Froböse. Why?
Both have seen pretty much everything in the field of recovery and sleep.
"The future of the health sector is no longer a prescription business but rather a behaviour change business." If you had only one message to share with the world, what would that be - and why? The future of medicine will be driven by the experiences of formula one. And pretty soon the health sector realizes that we are no longer a prescription business but rather a behavior change business.
