Healthcare Solutions to Market

Stratos Product Development engineers help Proteus Biomedical bring the company’s digital healthcare solutions to market.


Stratos Product Development engineers are working with Proteus Biomedical to develop advanced mobile health technology to provide personalized therapy to users. Combining sensor-enabled medications, a sensor patch worn on the body, an advanced mobile health application, and an information service, Proteus' technology allows consumers to remain independent in their own homes and enables their loved ones to help take care of them.

"At Proteus, we have used Stratos to augment our development team as our products have matured and our company has grown. For our next-generation personal monitor, we gave Stratos the critical role of designing, developing, and testing the firmware. The engineers they put on the project were top-notch, and they delivered an excellent package, consistent with their budget and schedule estimates and compliant with the medical device regulations," Timothy L. Robertson, PhD, vice president of product systems, Proteus Biomedical states.

Stratos engineers worked with Proteus on end-to-end firmware development for multiple generations of the product line, allowing Proteus to meet aggressive schedules and achieve cross-market deployment worldwide. In addition to embedded systems development, Stratos engineers worked with Proteus in early generations of the product on industrial design, human factors support, miniaturization, and wearable adhesives. These initial efforts led to a more advanced iteration of the product that involved Android development and integration, Bluetooth communications and an innovative software architecture that partitions the ISO 13485-compliant design-controlled software from the user-facing application, allowing cost-effective iteration of the application and user interface without sacrificing quality or reliability.
