Selected application

BIOS Medical: from an implantable sensor to digital mobility

With the mdeg Starter Kit, BIOS Medical built a functioning sensor-to-cloud prototype for HIPbeacon, the world’s first implantable hip mobility sensor, in three months.

The HIPbeacon hip implant sensor sends data via a smartphone to the cloud, where recovery progress is shown on a dashboard.
  • Functioning prototype in 3 months
  • Implantable BLE sensor
  • mdeg Starter Kit
  • Used in a real pilot study

The challenge

BIOS Medical developed HIPbeacon, an implantable hip mobility sensor designed for permanent implantation. It communicates via BLE and is intended to support continuous remote monitoring over periods of 6 to 12 months.

BIOS Medical needed a functioning sensor-to-cloud workflow that could acquire, transfer and visualize data without building the complete digital infrastructure from scratch.

mdeg contribution

With the Starter Kit, mdeg realized a functioning prototype in three months. The setup combined the connectivity layer, cloud infrastructure and data visualization: a practical path from data acquisition to secure, cloud-based monitoring of Digital Mobility Outcomes (DMO).

The infrastructure was designed to keep patient data private and secure, and provides a foundation for further remote patient monitoring and data-driven clinical applications that BIOS Medical is aiming to release in the US.

Highlights

  • Functioning sensor-to-cloud prototype in three months
  • Connectivity layer, cloud infrastructure and data visualization in one setup
  • Used in investor events and a real pilot study
  • Built on ISO-certified infrastructure, designed to keep patient data private
  • A foundation for further remote patient monitoring applications

What the customer says

“mdeg’s Starter Kit surpassed our needs, providing innovative features that elevated our project to the next level.”
