AWAK Technologies develop wearable dialysis machines, 1kg and battery-operated, for continuous dialysis.

The Automated Wearable Artificial Kidney (AWAK) is based on tidal peritoneal dialysis. The technology is based on research by Profs David Lee & Martin Roberts of UCLA and VA Systems.

The engineering is done in Singapore with the collaboration of Temasek Polytechnic.
