Client: Innovacon / Alere

Our Role

• Design second generation iScreen OFD assay device, focusing on increasing usability, product performance and manufacturabiliy.

Unique Features and Accomplishments

• Human factors study revealed design issues in first generation device that encouraged incorrect testing procedure and allowed test to proceed without adequate starting material.
• New design eliminated incorrect testing position and encouraged proper use of testing device.
• New design attractive, easy to use with increased manufacturability.

Expertise Employed

• While all projects benefit from our development process and expertise in design, engineering, and in-house rapid prototyping, this project highlights our expertise in:
• Design for manufacturing
• Industrial design
• Mechanical engineering
• Rapid Prototyping
