The most common mistakes in sensor applications include failing to select the most appropriate sensing principle/technology for the task. Below are some case studies where we were able to help teams find the best sensor for their need. Need Sensors Measure blood oxygen level as part of a device to detect sleep apnea and correct [...]
Don't miss our recent article on prototypes "Testing your key assumptions" in Embedded Computing Design. Prototypes are an important part of the hardware development process. At the simplest level, a prototype is an initial or preliminary model of the product. You build a prototype to test key assumptions that you have about the product. Prototypes [...]
June 26, 2018 - Sunnyvale CA, Voler Systems is excited to announce the availability of the Universal Health-Sensor Platform that enables gathering data much quicker and innovating that much faster. The Universal Health-Sensor Platform allows firms to save time and money when prototyping wearable devices that gather physiological data. The Universal Health-Sensor Platform allows firms [...]
We are committed to providing life-changing opportunities for young, aspiring individuals. This year we had someone from the Japan Biodesign program visit for three weeks as an extern. Below is one of the conversations that Walt Maclay and Rio Valdes had with Moe Sasaki and her startup team.
We are excited to be featured in Sensors Online and look forward to the 2018 Medical Sensors Design Conference in a few weeks. At the Medical Sensors Design Conference in San Jose, Voler will be demonstrating their Universal Health-Sensor Platform. Voler enables your fastest path to capturing and transmitting patient data with a pre-engineered prototype [...]
Voler Systems will offer a sneak peek at their Universal Health-Sensor Platform at the 2018 Sensor Expo & Conference. Voler's wearable health platform makes it possible to innovate faster and at a lower cost with rapid prototyping. It's no longer necessary for a company to design the core electronics and basic software for a new [...]
In this video, Walt Maclay discusses the issues involved with bringing wearable medical devices from an idea to FDA approval based on his firms many experiences. He explores areas including user interface issues, battery life, different sensing technologies, data security, and verification to meet FDA and CE requirements.
Transcript of Walt Maclay "Battery Limitations for Wearable Devices" video Walt Maclay: If battery technology advanced like semiconductors have, you would have a device the size of a pinhead that could power your car and it'd cost a penny. Unfortunately, we're never going to have that. If you want to get much, much denser [...]
Voler System's Walt Maclay will join three leading medical device developers on a panel discussion at the SV Hardware to Scale Meetup a panel discussion on "Medical Device Development for Newbies". May 24, 2018 in Mountain View The free program, Medical Device Development for Newbies, additionally features Jennifer Ernst, CEO at Tivic Health, Jeffrey Christian, [...]
In This Issue: Disruptive Startups Let’s talk about disruptive startups in 2018. Entrepreneurs create more than six million new businesses in the United States. Every year, a small percentage of them are successful and put existing business out of business. So who are those companies that are disrupting old industries and creating new ones? Here [...]
