Bluetooth is Healthy
October 19, 2007
Sorry for the appalling title, but I'm seeing quite a bit of interest in Bluetooth in Healthcare over the last 6-12 months. In Rococo, we've participated in a number of interesting trials in Healthcare solutions, where Bluetooth is used to connect some sort of sensor (heart rate, blood glucose for example) to a wireless device which aggregates or just forwards the sensors data to a remote system, where a human being can then check progress. Uses include post-op recovery monitoring, medium-term analysis of heart or blood data when new medicines are prescribed, etc.
Here's an example of a Finnish Company called eHit who seem to have a pretty good thing going with Nokia, and with Japanese partners.
