Ventilator Shortage Sparks Technology Partnership Between RespiraWorks and Integrated Computer Solutions (ICS)
Summary
Founder Ethan Chaleff, who currently works on designing ocean wave renewable energy, started out as an EMT and planned to go to medical school before deciding to tackle climate change through engineering. The ICS team’s deep expertise in Human-Machine Interface and embedded touchscreen devices will be instrumental in that, and we are grateful for their generous support.” Specializing in both user experience (UX) design and software engineering, ICS’ work spans modern user interfaces, connected products and touchscreen-enabled applications -- everything from high-performance medical devices, smart agri-business equipment and air traffic control systems to connected restaurant equipment, next-gen video surveillance and in-vehicle infotainment systems for Tier 1 automakers. RespiraWorks is an actively growing team of medical professionals, engineers, computer scientists and good samaritans applying their skills and resources to coordinate a response to the critical lack of ventilators that will acutely affect the developing world in the coming months. At the intersection of custom software development, engineering and UX design, Integrated Computer Solutions (ICS) has been helping Fortune 1000 companies create transformational products for over 30 years. ICS understanding of human-centric design and FDA manufacturing specifications helps medical device and life science organizations navigate regulatory compliance to meet the requirements of applicable standards, including ISO 62366 and IEC 62304.
