Scotland-based Neuranics is set to showcase its latest wearable innovation, the MiMiG Wristband, at CES 2026 in Las Vegas from January 6 to 9. The device, a developmental prototype, leverages magnetomyography (MMG) technology to enable gesture recognition by capturing subtle magnetic signals generated by muscle activity.
The MiMiG Wristband integrates eight ultra-sensitive tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) sensors along both the inner and outer wrist. Unlike conventional muscle-sensing devices that rely on electrodes, gels, or tight straps, MiMiG’s low-profile design allows natural signal acquisition during everyday movements. Embedded electronics and AI-enabled processing demonstrate real-time gesture recognition, providing attendees with a tangible preview of the potential applications for wearable, XR, digital health, and machine control systems.
At CES, Neuranics will also highlight the complete signal chain behind its magnetic sensing solution, combining TMR sensors, a custom mixed-signal ASIC, and AI-powered electronics. The demonstration emphasizes the company’s focus on low-power, seamless gesture interfaces for next-generation devices.
MiMiG remains a prototype, available for evaluation under NDA, intended to illustrate the capabilities of Neuranics’ magnetic sensing technology for future product integration. The company is engaging with partners and innovators to explore applications that leverage gesture-driven interfaces across consumer and industrial settings.
Neuranics’ Chief Science Officer, Dr. Kia Nazarpour, will further discuss the potential of magnetic sensing and AI-enhanced wearables during the AI-Powered Wearables panel on January 8 from 9:00 to 9:40 a.m. at the Venetian, Level 4, Lando 4302. The session will focus on how AI is transforming wearables from passive monitoring tools into proactive systems capable of delivering actionable insights.
