Embedded firmware for a connected patient-monitoring device

Firmware and connectivity engineering for a wearable monitoring device, from sensor acquisition to secure cloud synchronisation.

Embedded firmware development for a connected medical device

Challenge

The challenge

The device needed reliable real-time acquisition from biosensors, on-device detection, secure connectivity to a cloud back end, and a firmware update path — all within medical device regulatory expectations.

Context

The context

Hardware design was already in progress. Firmware and the software layers around it needed to be engineered alongside it rather than added afterwards.

Solution

Our approach

  1. 01 Developed embedded firmware for biosensor acquisition and real-time scheduling
  2. 02 Implemented on-device signal processing and anomaly detection
  3. 03 Built BLE and Wi-Fi connectivity with encrypted transmission
  4. 04 Established an over-the-air update pipeline
  5. 05 Structured documentation and validation evidence to support regulatory review

Implementation

How it was delivered

Firmware developed in close coordination with the hardware team, with an emulation harness that allowed control logic to be tested before the final board revisions were available.

Let's engineer what's next.
