Industrial Design - Neptec Telehealth...

Design Interpretive helped Neptec Telehealth develop their CareCompanion™, a complete remote homecare solution.

Neptec, a well known name in the aerospace industry is applying their advanced engineering expertise to the area of remote health care with their CareCompanion product. CareCompanion allows medical institutions to monitor the progress of their outbound patients in the comfort of their own home through the use of remote diagnostic devices and a teleconferencing monitoring station.

Neptec chose Design Interpretive to design an innovative, user-friendly solution to house a collection of dissimilar, medical devices that connect electronically to an existing teleconferencing console. These devices, which measure a variety of vital signs, communicate wirelessly with the CareMonitor unit relaying vital information to a remote nurse station by means of a regular telephone connection. The CareMonitor also has a touch-sensitive display which the patient interacts with at various stages during an assessment or when communicating with nurses.

Several concepts were proposed and working prototypes were constructed from design files.

Design Interpretive will ensure that your product, whether it is hardware or software, is easy to choose, easy to use, and more valued by its users.
