The client is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of Automated External Defibrillator\u00a0(AED) cabinets and\u00a0recently sought to enhance their product offering with an integrated IoT solution. To help bring this solution from concepts to product, the client reached out to DMC for our embedded development expertise and our experience in product development<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n

As a potentially life-saving device, it is extremely important that every AED is checked regularly for proper functionality. Previously, most of this monitoring process was manual\u00a0\u2014\u00a0an employee went around\u00a0to each AED cabinet to physically check if each device was working correctly. This posed\u00a0a few problems. First, if an AED were\u00a0not functioning, it would only be discovered and resolved once an employee manually checked\u00a0the device. Physically checking each AED cabinet can be very time-costly and is subject to human error.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

DMC helped integrate an IoT solution so the monitoring could be performed remotely to\u00a0mitigate these safety and inefficiency issues.\u00a0Now, each AED is mounted inside of a cabinet fitted with an RMS connected to a cellular network. All AEDs perform self-checks on a regular basis. Using patented technology, the RMS can now sense the electrical activity within the AED during its self-checks and determine if the AED is operating correctly. If no electrical activity is sensed, or the AED fails its self-check, the RMS will send a notification via cellular network so that action can be taken to promptly replace the failed AED.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n

By changing the AED monitoring process from manual to an automated remote monitoring system, the client’s RMS drastically reduced\u00a0labor and maintenance costs, mitigated\u00a0human error, and allowed\u00a0for real-time monitoring of AEDs. With up to a\u00a0ten-year battery life, the new device is now as dependable as it is effective. DMC is proud to have worked with this client to develop a product that has the potential to save many lives.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n
