INDUSTRY / 01 — HEALTHCARE

Assistive technology that earns trust before it asks for it.

Healthcare technology has to be right, not just impressive. We work on assistive and human-machine systems, and we are explicit about what is research, what is demonstrated and what has not yet been approved for use with patients.

PROBLEM FIRST

The problem on the ground.

We start with what goes wrong today, not with the technology.

01

Limited access to assistive devices

Imported prosthetic and assistive technology is costly and hard to service locally.

02

Information is hard to reach

Many people have no easy route to reliable health guidance, or to a human professional when they need one.

03

Prototypes stall before trials

Promising devices need approval, protocols and partners before they can be tested with users.

DESIGNED FOR REAL CONDITIONS

What we design around.

— Safety and approval come first. Nothing is described as clinically validated unless it is.

— Privacy by design: health data stays on the device wherever possible.

— Repairable and serviceable by local technicians.

— Honest labelling of every system as concept, demonstrator or research.

APPROACH

How we work in this sector.

01

Understand the operation

We visit, observe and listen before we specify anything.

02

Prototype against reality

Early builds go into the real environment, with its heat, dust, power and people.

03

Measure and report

Results are documented, including what did not work.

04

Prepare for use

Documentation, serviceability and a clear statement of what production would need.
