Parts, parts, and more parts!

Sara is back in Boston (and none too happy about it).  We got the reworked parts back from our prototype vendor, and so it is time to start the two-person assembly line!

 Taking inventory of the new parts

A little rework here and there...

Lasering inscriptions
 
Giving them a bath to remove mold release and dust

And reassembly according to the color combo wishes of our Indiegogo supporters!

Software crunch time --- GO!

This week we are starting on the deep dive into the updated uBox app -- how does it look, how does it work, how does it live?

Feature analysis, wireframing, mockups and use cases galore.  And so it goes.

Engaging Patients


Today was the Connected Health Conference in Santa Clara.

The conference was focused largely on M2M technologies, making use of data, and how devices can be tell you what they're thinking and doing.

I was on Wednesday's health panel, talking about how to engage patients in their own healthcare, which is not an easy task.  My co-panelists were great guys, both hilarious and informed, and it was a great experience to share what I've learned through the development of the uBox.  10/10 would do it again.

Well, hello again, Boston

So, we meet again.....

I am in Boston for a week to build uBoxes with Greddy.  I have been utterly spoiled by San Francisco's weather, and I do NOT miss the humidity! Sure, it could be worse, but still.  bleh.

We got the first shipment of parts from our RTV vendor and I am slightly disappointed... They did pretty well, all things considered, but compared to injection molded parts, they just aren't the same.  I'll have to send back about a third of the parts to be redone, both for cosmetic and structural reasons.

Just part of the process for hardware development!

It's a Connected World...

Sara will be representing Abiogenix and the uBox at the Connected World conference in Santa Clara on June 12th.

She will be on a panel focused on engaging patients in their own care, moderated by Kamal Jethwani of the Partners Center for Connected Health.

In the meantime, they have released this preview, How to Engage Consumers in Healthcare.
