The Helping-Hand from Bang & Olufsen Medicom.
Bang & Olufsen Medicom is the medical products division of the Bang & Olufsen Group.
DEVELOPA teamed up with B&O Medicom to create the strategic product concept for the Helping-Hand. Concept formulation processes helped identify and structure the most significant benefits for patients, healthcare professionals, and pharmaceutical companies. The Helping-hand improves patient compliance to the course of therapy.
The Helping Hand discretely houses pills in a protective manner. As pills are withdrawn from the device electronic registration allows for a handy reminder function and monitoring of compliance to the treatment. Meta data collected by the device assists healthcare professionals and pharmaceutical companies in the development of the therapy. The Helping-Hand creates a break-thorugh platform for confident data-based therapy management.
The strategic product concept won the prestigious “Red Dot – Best of the Best” design award.
DEVELOPA continues to assist B&O Medicom in the further development of this concept.
