Sensors, Power Management, Wireless, and Medical Device Expertise
Entrust your wearable device design to Voler’s expert low-power engineering team. Voler combines decades of electronic design experience across hundreds of projects spanning sensors, power management, and wireless communication. Our teams architect reliable, scalable wearable systems that balance performance, battery life, and manufacturability.
Sensor-Based Wearable Devices
We are sensor experts and have developed many wearable technology products, including wearable wireless medical devices, by managing design trade-offs between size, power, and cost.
We select the best wireless standard for each application to ensure secure and dependable data transmission (see our Guide to Wireless Standards).
Ultra-Low-Power Design
We develop ultra-low-power designs with sensors and wireless communication for wearable technology products. This includes embedded software for data collection, sensor device status monitoring, and over-the-air software updates.
We support application-level system management and analytics software on gateways or in the cloud.
Medical Device Experts
Voler’s expert medical device team has decades of design experience across a wide spectrum of regulated products, from Class I to Class III.
As a trusted wearable medical technology company, we perform risk analysis and verification testing while working closely with your quality system to support regulatory compliance.
Flexible Engagement Models
Our team can take on complete responsibility for all aspects of development, or share responsibility with your in-house team to accelerate innovation and reduce risk for your wearable medical device project.
Our partners can provide mechanical and optical design, quality and regulatory services, transfer to manufacturing, and onshore or offshore production to deliver complete product development.
Universal Health-Sensor Platform Highlighted in Steve Leibson’s Article "A Kit of Its Own"
We were delighted to be featured by Steve Leibson, in the Electronic Engineering Journal, A Kit of Its Own: Voler Systems’ Health-Sensor Platform- Company Creates Pre-Engineered Prototyping Kit for Wireless IoT Medical Apps.
Leibson’s article describes an afternoon he spent with Walt Maclay, Voler’s Founder and Chairman of the Board, where Walt demonstrated the Voler Health-Sensor Platform on Leibson. Leibson’s article details the cost and time advantages the platform offers when prototyping a wearable medical device.
We were also featured in the Podcast called Lab to Startup by Naresh Sunkara, Ph.D., where we talk about Lessons learned from designing electronics, firmware, and software with a focus on wearable devices. In this podcast, Walt talks about:
- Current and future states of the wearable industry
- Remote monitoring of patients is here to stay (thanks to COVID) and wearables are going to play a big role
- Advances in low power communication direct to the internet
- Phases of product development
- Risk management in prototype development
- How to respond to an investor when she/he asks an entrepreneur about the price of a product
