Shown is a Dental Image Enhancer (DIE) used by dentists in conjunction with care providers.

The Dental Image Enhancer (DEI) will convert any x-ray to a high-resolution digital image and will enhance any features that are difficult to discern. We provided engineering, design, procurement and assembly services to our client enabling them to enter the market. The DIE features a stable high-resolution camera, backlighted panel, image illumination system, and a fold-down design for ease of transport/storage. Working closely with local fabrication houses, we established a manufacturing flow to simplify and cost-reduce the assembly.

Shown to the left is a Peak Flow Monitor we developed for a medical device manufacturing firm.

A Peak Flow monitor is a hand-held device prescribed by physicians to allow asthmatic patients to monitor and record daily lung capacity, which in turn dictates medication dosage. We designed, prototyped, calibrated, assisted in obtaining FDA approval for this product. Additionally, we transformed the monitor into production as a low cost, high volume product. The construction consists of injection molded plastic housings, a rate change mechanism and peak indicator flag.

We designed and developed a pre-production module for the semiconductor industry. The module employs a bake plate, cool plate, three DC servo robotic wafer handlers, vacuum chucks, and vacuum end effectors. The physical size is 18" x 16" x 9". The unit was delivered to the client as a plug-and-play component and is integrated into the overall machine.

We were part of a team that designed this Michelson interferometer. The instrument contains a HeNe laser, prism, beamsplitter, fixed and moving mirror. All of the elements must maintain optical alignment over extreme temperature and vibration.
