A Chinese tech company is working on a new device that can help women get pregnant easier. Comper Healthcare has created a new smart medical device that can measure even the most subtle change in a woman's body temperature; a sign that could help predict ovulation period.

In a statement, Comper Healthcare founder and chief executive officer Du Han said, "It's one chance in a month for a woman. Our fertility tracker can tell them the exact date of ovulation this month, and predict the next one."

Comper Healthcare's newest device is a thermometer that comes with a companion app. Unlike conventional thermometers, Comper's device can is very accurate to the point that it can detect event the subtlest change in a woman's temperature.

The fertility tracker costs RMB599 (about $90). The device, along with its companion app, can calculate a woman's precise date of ovulation using a sophisticated set of algorithm that accurately measures body temperature.

Research have discovered that women's basal body temperature are slightly higher when they are ovulating. The difference can range between 0.2 to 0.5-degree centigrade and Comper Healthcare's device can detect changes as subtle as 0.01-degree centigrade.

Comper Healthcare is still pushing the boundary of the smart medical technology market. The company has a team composed of 35 researchers with a wide array of experience in the medical and technological field.
