Company profile
researched Aug 2026Sky Labs Inc. is a Korean medical device company that develops ring-type cuffless blood pressure monitoring products under the CART brand. The consumer product line is marketed as CART BP, while CART BP pro is positioned for healthcare professionals and hospitals. The devices use a photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor that detects blood flow changes in the finger vessels, combined with a proprietary deep-learning algorithm, to measure blood pressure automatically without a cuff and to track readings over long periods regardless of time or place. Measurement data is available through smartphone, tablet and PC platforms.
The company frames its offering as a monitoring solution linking clinical and everyday settings, with separate entry points on its website for medical professionals (CART BP pro information and adoption inquiries) and consumers. Alongside the device business, Sky Labs has begun presenting a data platform business, including the potential use of CART BP pro in pharmaceutical clinical trials. The chief executive is identified in company announcements as Jack Byunghwan Lee.
Business model
Sky Labs sells and markets a certified ring-type blood pressure monitoring device in two tracks: a consumer product (CART BP) and a professional/hospital product (CART BP pro), the latter supported by an inquiry-based adoption process for healthcare institutions. The company has also introduced a data platform business positioning CART BP pro for use in drug clinical trials.
Traction
CART BP pro was incorporated into the 2026 Korean Society of Hypertension hypertension management guidelines (6th edition), announced May 2026. The CART ring-type monitor completed UK MHRA medical device approval, announced May 2026, following expansion into Europe. The company held symposiums at ESH 2026 and BCS 2026 in June 2026 and presented its data platform business at the 9th Digital Biomarkers in Clinical Trials Summit in July 2026. In July 2026 it filed a securities registration statement to begin the public offering process for a KOSDAQ listing.

Market position
Sky Labs states that CART BP pro is the world's first ring-type cuffless blood pressure monitor to be officially incorporated into an official hypertension guideline, the 2026 Korean Society of Hypertension hypertension management guidelines (6th edition). Its clinical materials reference alignment with European Society of Hypertension recommendations for daytime and nighttime blood pressure tracking.
Cuffless, ring-form-factor measurement enabling automatic long-term and nighttime blood pressure tracking, backed by validation against invasive arterial line data and standard sphygmomanometry, reported consistency across skin colors, and inclusion in an official national hypertension guideline.
Technology
The device measures blood pressure from the finger using a photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor that detects subtle blood flow changes in finger vessels, with a proprietary deep-learning algorithm converting the signal into personalized systolic and diastolic blood pressure values. The company reports algorithm validation against invasive arterial (A-line) blood pressure data, trained on 4,185 subjects and 320,535 A-line BP samples collected in an operating room with 10% reserved for validation, yielding mean error/SD of 0.98/6.97 mmHg for SBP and 0.52/4.38 mmHg for DBP. Separate validation against a standard sphygmomanometer reported mean error/SD of 0.16/5.90 mmHg (SBP) and -0.07/4.68 mmHg (DBP), with correlations of r = 0.94 (SBP) and r = 0.95 (DBP), and no performance differences by skin color. A 24-hour comparison against ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) reported daytime-nighttime BP change tracking with mean error ± SD of -3.39 ± 5.86 mmHg (SBP, r = 0.73) and -3.74 ± 4.72 mmHg (DBP, r = 0.75). The measurement platform supports smartphone, tablet and PC.
Go-to-market
The company runs parallel professional and consumer channels from its website, with an inquiry form for hospital adoption of CART BP pro. It builds clinical credibility through validation studies and presence at medical conferences, including exclusive symposiums at the 35th European Society of Hypertension congress (ESH 2026) in Gdansk, Poland and the British Cardiovascular Society annual meeting (BCS 2026) in Manchester, UK, and a presentation of its data platform business at the 9th Digital Biomarkers in Clinical Trials Summit in Basel, Switzerland. It has also supported the American Heart Association's 'Established Investigator' program.
Two customer groups: hospitals and healthcare professionals who adopt CART BP pro for patient blood pressure monitoring and clinical use, and consumers using CART BP for personal blood pressure tracking. The data platform business targets pharmaceutical clinical trial use.
Geography
Headquartered in South Korea, with market expansion into Europe and preparation for entry into the United Kingdom following MHRA medical device approval for the CART ring-type blood pressure monitor.
