CORE
Core temperature. No pill.
CORE 2 uses heat-flux sensing to estimate core body temperature, skin temperature and a Heat Strain Index without an ingestible pill or probe. It clips to a heart-rate strap or sits in an upper-arm sleeve and streams to the CORE app and compatible devices over Bluetooth Low Energy and ANT+. For workforces, CORE Live pairs the sensor with a smartwatch and team software so supervisors can see heat strain across a crew in real time. CORE Calera Research uses the same hardware with 1 Hz logging and cloud data management for studies.
Key specifications
Why the CORE 2
Core temperature, non-invasively
Heat-flux sensors on the skin estimate core body temperature continuously, without ingestible pills or rectal probes.
Heat strain at a glance
The CORE app and some Garmin devices display a Heat Strain Index alongside core and skin temperature, so rising strain is visible before it becomes a problem.
Crew-wide visibility
CORE Live pairs the sensor with a Samsung Galaxy Watch, LTE or Wi-Fi connectivity and team software with configurable individual alert thresholds, map view and geofencing.
Built for research
CORE Calera Research logs at 1 Hz on the device, uploads to a secure cloud platform and exports raw data as CSV for studies with large cohorts.
Where it is used
Firefighting, airfield crews, heavy industry, lone working, military and sports science teams, and endurance athletes training in heat.

Clearance & compliance
No regulatory clearance stated by the maker for CORE 2; marketed as a performance and safety wearable, not a medical device. Supplied subject to registration in each destination country (MOHAP, DoH, DHA, SFDA or the equivalent authority). Certificates, declarations of conformity, IFUs and registration documents are provided with every quotation. Specifications are indicative and subject to manufacturer change.

Questions
Is the CORE 2 available in the UAE and the GCC?
KGG sources CORE 2, CORE Live and CORE Calera Research on request for employers, safety teams, sports organisations and research groups in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman, supplied subject to registration in each destination country. Availability is confirmed with each quotation.
How does it measure core temperature without a pill?
The sensor measures skin temperature and heat flux at the skin surface and uses an algorithm to estimate core body temperature. The maker reports a mean difference of −0.01 °C to +0.23 °C against reference methods in its research data.
Does it work in Gulf summer heat?
The maker states an operating ambient range of −20 °C to 45 °C. Worn against the body under clothing, the sensor is typically shielded from direct sun; confirm suitability for your specific outdoor conditions with the quotation.
What is the difference between CORE 2, CORE Live and Calera Research?
CORE 2 is the individual sensor used with the CORE app and sports devices. CORE Live is the workforce bundle with smartwatch, sleeve and team monitoring software. CORE Calera Research shares the hardware and adds 1 Hz logging, cloud management and CSV export for studies.
Do workers need a heart-rate strap?
For accurate sports use the maker requires a heart-rate monitor, sold separately. The CORE Live bundle uses a Samsung Galaxy Watch worn on the upper arm with the sensor.
