Frugal engineering for connected devices

Cost per deployed clinic matters as much as capability. How constraint shapes our hardware and software decisions.

Frugal engineering is one of our values because access is a clinical issue. A device that a clinic cannot afford does not improve care.

Constraints we design to

Low bill of materials, long battery life, simple set-up, and software that runs well on the hardware clinics already own.
