PNOE has introduced a new smart mask that the company says allows people to run breath tests at home rather than in a lab, according to Digital Trends. The device is designed to make lab-grade breath testing a self-serve affair, TechCrunch reports. Coverage of the launch appeared Monday, September 28, 2026.
According to thestar.ng, the mask lets users test their metabolism without needing a specialist. Digital Trends reports that the wearable also becomes smarter over time, and notes that its design avoids the heavy, restrictive look associated with some mask-style devices.
The product sits in a growing category of at-home health monitoring tools that aim to move testing out of clinical settings and into daily use. PNOE's pitch, as described in the coverage, centers on giving individuals direct access to breath-based metabolic data that would otherwise require professional equipment and supervision.
Full technical specifications, pricing, and availability were not detailed in the reporting available. Digital Trends' headline also references the mask's appearance, suggesting the company has paid attention to making the device wearable in everyday settings rather than clinical-looking.
What to watch next: whether PNOE releases pricing, availability, and independent validation of the mask's accuracy compared with standard lab testing.
