Samir Damani, a practicing cardiologist, hasn’t really fit in at the International CES in Las Vegas, where 3D televisions, connected cars and the latest gaming consoles abound. Until this year.

As founder of MD Revolution Inc., Damani is developing software that lets consumers monitor their health, nutrition and fitness on smartphones. At CES, formerly called the Consumer Electronics Show, he’s introducing RevUp, which uses data from devices such as Fitbit’s Wi-Fi scale and the Withings blood-pressure monitor and supplements it with lab tests to provide customized advice.
