Cambridge Heartwear earns two BIMA awards for Heartsense device
Cambridge Heartwear has won two BIMA (British Interactive Media Assocation) Awards for its Heartsense device.
It scooped the best emerging technology and innovation award for its real-time ECG interface.
The Heartsense system monitors and detects heart rhythm conditions. A lightweight, durable and waterproof three-point ECG monitor, it can record and transmit ECG data in real time to the Heartsense web platform.
Dr Rameen Shakur, the founder and chair of the Cambridge Science Park company, said: “We are humbled to receive not one but two awards. Being such a young start-up and taking on such an ambitious solution, gaining this recognition for our ongoing innovation and technology is very exciting.
“The device is due to be launched next year. We have also developed other connected devices and training and fitness devices, which have the power of our platform embedded. We hope to provide this suite of devices to use the power of real time data, with the support from AI, to aid the clinician.”
Dr Shakur said Cambridge Heartwear was “proud to be a Cambridge company causing such disruption in the medtech space and was keen to support diversity and the next generation of engineers from Cambridge and the UK”. Read more
