INSPIREN

Smart patient care assistant.

Inspiren is a singular hybrid sensing device that installs in a hospital room in seconds and uses AI to capture data on the digital and physical patient environment. 

10XBETA was tasked to design and develop a suite of smart products that would support patient care, while giving physicians, nurses, and hospital administrators a clear picture of the care provided to patients, and adherence to federal standards.

Deliverables:

  • Mechanical Engineering

  • Embedded Systems Design

  • Industrial Design

  • Electrical Engineering

  • Visual Design

  • UXUI

Founders Michael Wang and Paul Coyne met in nursing school and continued to work together at New York Presbyterian. Their work in clinical bedside nursing and analytics shed light on many inefficiencies in hospital settings.

Using data to improve patient care

To begin, 10XBETA conducted a series of workshops to determine the quality and frequency of interactions with patients, along with initial design considerations for creating an unobtrusive system that integrates into a patient’s room.000

Through intentional hardware redundancies, a custom ratio frequency antenna, infrared computer vision system, and a small form-factor BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) beacon, the Inspiren system can precisely and accurately detect the quality of care provided to patients.

The suite of sensors capture, analyze, and relay data to the manursing station. From there, nurses, doctors, and care management providers are able to clearly see which patients need additional support and can accurately monitor patient interactions.

Helping to find the right partners

10XBETA carefully evaluated and selected mechanical and electrical fabrication partners to manufacture the initial clinical pilot units and high-volume runs. 

10X guided the Inspiren team through a full-scale Pilot and Pitch Program, reaching potential investors both inside and outside of New Lab’s network.
