Cambridge Consultants and wireless healthcare

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

Cambridge Consultant 2Cambridge Consultants specialise in developing and licensing breakthrough products, from the early design and concept stages right through to manufacturing. With the Cambridge Consultants approaching their fiftieth anniversary within the industry, there are few more experienced consultancy firms in the medical and connected healthcare sectors.

As senior mechanical engineer Edward Brunner noted however, there is more than meets the eye to Cambridge Consultants; “One of our key advantages is that we can help out in so many different ways. It’s not just the product development process, it’s identifying the right technology or the right product for a technology. We have structuring ideas and management processes that can help”.

Cambridge Consultants were invaluable in the development of Vena, the first fully Continua compliant wireless healthcare device. Committed to reducing healthcare costs, Vena enabled products range from healthcare devices that monitor vital signs wirelessly to fitness enhancing products like gym equipment and motion-based gaming devices. Being Continua compliant, these devices can all seamlessly stream data to health services from the likes of Philips and Google Health.

Cambridge Consultants are also committed to helping their clients cut CO2 emissions, having recently launched their Clean Tech campaign to help mitigate fossil fuel costs. One key innovation aiming to help tackle the challenge poised by climate change is the Holographic Radar system. Where wind farms currently disrupt Air Traffic Control and surveillance systems, the Holographic radar system is set to transform the UK’s wind energy industry by allowing turbines to be built near controlled air space.

With both wireless healthcare and eco-friendly systems becoming increasingly valuable, Cambridge Consultants offer superb experience and expertise within these sectors to UK companies who are looking to turn their product concepts into a reality.
