Q: What is the greatest design challenge when it comes to developing mobile medical device technology?

The number one issue we see among companies developing mobile healthcare devices is that they don’t know what they don’t know. Understanding how to measure blood glucose or heart rate or any other number of health-related metrics simply does not equate to understanding RF (radio frequency) technology – nor does it have to. That’s why we pre-package connection technology in a way that makes adding connectivity to any device as simple as possible – so healthcare experts can do what they do best without worrying about the myriad complexities surrounding radio, antenna design, and certification with the FCC, industry regulatory bodies, and individual carriers.
