Designing MEMS driver ASIC for contact lens sensor
By AnSem
AnSem is in the business of translating real world problems into ASIC solutions by matching up RF, analog and digital processing elements to transform real world inputs into the required outputs. Medical applications often have particular needs for ultra-low power consumption, high integration, small size and novel powering techniques. The choice of process is often make or break for such a project which is why AnSem works with a number of leading fabs in order to support its customers. For more, click here.

@Anne: is there going to be any updates from BioMed San Jose held last week? It would be nice to know what are 'new' products in the medical area in 2013...

@andrew... Thank you... it is common to see survey respondents provide inputs considering the contemporary 'pain points' and may miss future ones. My guess is this list will look radically different in another 5 years. Probably #10 will dominate?

Very useful information in the link above, thanks! I would imagine software applications using these technologies will start to be more prominent in 2013; in particular, analytics-driven prognostics.

Two lens sens angle between both eysys thus focal length. Adjust focus as needed.
No more reading glasses wearing contacts!
