Products
Neonatal surfactant therapeutic formulation (research prototype)
Therapeutic surfactant formulation developed in research to support respiration in premature infants with neonatal respiratory distress.
Ingestible gastrointestinal diagnostic capsule (research prototype)
Ingestible capsule platform that measures gastrointestinal function for diagnostic assessment and non‑invasive monitoring in research settings.
Implantable cardiac pulse-generator technologies (research prototype)
Early approaches to implantable pulse generation and battery integration aimed at extending longevity of cardiac pacing devices developed in research programs.
AI-based early literacy reading assistant (development prototype)
Prototype AI reading assistant that generates personalized text, provides real-time reading analysis and delivers just-in-time literacy support for early learners; subject to efficacy trials.
Edge-based AI Screener for classroom speech and language (research prototype)
An edge-deployed system that analyzes classroom audio and video to derive speech and language measures for early screening and referral in educational settings.
AI Orchestrator for individualized intervention (research prototype)
A platform that supports speech-language pathologists and teachers by recommending individualized, evidence-based interventions and assessing their effects on IEP targets using a reinforcement-learning-driven framework.
