This smart mirror was a threat at CES 2026

Imagine walking into CES 2026, sitting in front of a smart mirror, taking a 30-second selfie, and getting a score on how much you’ve aged. Well, last night, a group of other tech journalists did just that. I have witnessed some journalists do serious damage to their self-esteem. Others rubbed their foreheads in relief. I let out some really unholy gossip because the mirror told me I looked 11 years younger than I actually am. Everyone praises the protective powers of sunscreen.

This particular smart mirror is the $899 Nuralogix Longevity Mirror. It uses what’s called optical transdermal imaging to measure blood flow patterns in your face. From there, it evaluates a variety of health metrics, including heart rate, blood pressure, risk of cardiovascular disease, metabolic health, physiological age, and even mental health. All of these metrics then feed into a longevity score from 1 to 100. The higher the number, the better.

This type of technology should be taken with caution. I mean, sure, the mirror correctly guessed that I was anxious and that I fell asleep somewhat. The heart rate measurement was on par with my smartwatch. I know my average blood pressure, and that was in the right ballpark too. (A Nuralogix representative told me that the blood pressure monitor is currently undergoing the FDA approval process.) My colleague Antonio Di Benedetto said he got similar results for heart rate and blood pressure during his demo. He was also one of the lucky journalists who got a result close to their real age. However, it was related to my body mass index because it didn’t actually include my actual height or weight.

Nuralogix also operates a health concierge service that connects you with a health professional to get more information about its results. This will cost an additional $399 per year. Other than that, there is a built-in AI assistant that can help analyze the results. The device is expected to launch in the first quarter of 2026, and the $899 cost includes the first year of service. After that, it will cost $99 per year.

Longevity technology appeared to be an emerging trend in health tech at this year’s CES. Withings also announced a new smart scale that is labeled as “Longevity Station”while other companies take advantage of this Hormonal analysis using urine As another means of preventive health monitoring. Companies like Whoop and Oura have also recently done so Provide metrics related to longevity For those who follow their health. What makes this longevity mirror interesting is that it is a contactless method and, most importantly, it does not involve any bodily fluids such as blood, urine or saliva. However, the mirrors are discreet enough without incorporating all this smart technology. We’ll have to see if the average person is eager to subject themselves to this kind of health assessment in the name of living longer.
