BUILT-IN CELLULAR CONNECTIVITY

The Network, Built In.

Wearable medical devices that sense, process, and transmit health data directly over mobile networks, without requiring a patient's phone or home network. Continuous, reliable access to that data can support earlier insight, better-informed care, and ultimately better health outcomes.

The First Application

Starting With Wound Care

DigiBooBoo is the first medical product built on the Digi Med Dev architecture. It is a cellular-connected wound-monitoring system designed to continuously monitor wound-site skin temperature and provide clinicians with trend data and alerts without relying on the patient's phone, app, or home Wi-Fi.

Continuous sensing
The device collects frequent temperature readings, creating a continuous stream of data that can be processed across the device, cloud platform, and clinical software.
Direct cellular connectivity
LTE-M and NB-IoT connectivity, cellular technologies designed for reliable, low-power connected devices, are built directly into the device.
No patient phone required
No Bluetooth pairing, app installation, or home Wi-Fi is required for normal operation.
Connected clinical software
Data flows into a clinician-facing dashboard with temperature trends, device status, events, and alert workflows.

Built for the Care Team

Continuous device data becomes useful when it is organized around the needs of the care team. The Digi Med Dev platform can present patient overviews, detailed histories, trends, device status, events, and alerts, with dashboards and workflows configured for each clinical application and interpretation logic developed and refined with clinical input and relevant research.

The application changes. The underlying platform does not have to.

Core Technology

More Than a Smart Bandage

DigiBooBoo required us to solve a much larger problem: how to build a wearable medical device that can sense, process data, communicate, recover from connectivity loss, manage its own power, securely transmit data, and keep meaningful information visible to the care team.
  1. Sensors

    The architecture is designed to support a wide range of sensors for collecting physiological, biochemical, and other medically relevant data. Temperature, electrical activity, chemical markers, and other signals can each require different sensing approaches, while the surrounding connectivity, cloud, and software infrastructure can remain largely reusable.
  2. Wearable

    The wearable combines sensor interfaces, embedded processing, firmware, battery and power management, device identity, and local data storage. It can collect and process readings, retain data when connectivity is interrupted, and prepare information for secure transmission.
  3. Cellular Network

    Built-in LTE-M and NB-IoT provide direct cellular communication using low-power network technologies designed for connected devices. Multi-carrier support allows the device to connect across available networks, while automatic reconnection and data backfill help maintain continuity when coverage changes or a connection is temporarily lost.
  4. Cloud

    The cloud layer securely receives device data, tracks device status, supports processing, APIs, and connected services, and links the physical device to the applications that use its data. It is designed to support both individual devices and larger fleets of connected medical devices.
  5. Clinician Dashboard

    The dashboard turns continuous device data into information designed for clinical review. Modular views can include patient overviews, detailed histories, trend charts, alerts, events, workflows, and device-health information, with each implementation configured around the sensor, condition, and clinical use case.
  6. Better Health

    The purpose of the connected system is not simply to collect more data. Continuous visibility can give care teams more timely information about meaningful changes between scheduled observations and patient visits.
Architecture

Built as a System. Designed as Components.

The technology developed for DigiBooBoo is increasingly being structured as reusable components rather than one tightly coupled product. That creates multiple paths forward: build new Digi Med Dev devices, integrate new sensors into the connected wearable, or potentially use selected parts of the stack independently in partner and OEM applications.

Intelligence

The components can be used together as a complete Digi Med Dev system or selectively integrated into partner and OEM products, from connected wearable hardware to cloud infrastructure, dashboards, and alerting.

Why It Matters

Medical Devices Should Not Depend on Consumer Technology

Remote monitoring often depends on a patient's phone, Bluetooth pairing, app permissions, or home Wi-Fi. Each dependency creates another potential break in the path between the device and the care team. Digi Med Dev moves connectivity into the medical device itself.

Long-Term Vision

A Foundation for Connected Care

DigiBooBoo is the first application, not the boundary of the architecture. The same connected foundation can support different physiological, electrical, biochemical, and other sensing technologies, new form factors, partner devices, and new clinical applications without requiring every layer of the system to be rebuilt.

Longer term, multiple low-power sensors will operate together around a patient, communicating through a shared cellular gateway and giving the care team a connected view across devices. As communications networks evolve, the architecture will also provide a path toward direct-to-cell satellite connectivity.
