After months of research, development, testing, and multiple PoCs with the Department of Health Abu Dhabi, it finally happened. We had a fully functional ventilator prototype - reliable, compact, and built with a purpose.
We called it eBreather. (sounds like I work for Apple :) ) It wasn’t just a ventilator. It had embedded remote monitoring, data collection, and anomaly detection features. We chose a turbine-based design and calibrated off-the-shelf flow sensors for precision. That turned out to be the right decision.
We followed strict safety guidelines and added features like live parameter adjustments, alarms, and multi-layered protection systems. It wasn’t just about building something that worked. It had to protect lives consistently.
Next came the hard part: optimizing it for production.
We had to simplify the system for easier deployment, real-world use, and field servicing. That meant running test after test in hospitals, consulting with pulmologists, doctors, and technicians. Every single detail had to be challenged, questioned, and improved.
