Know anything about Proof-Of-Concept or Prototyping?

Seeking Help: Prototyping a Cardiac Care Device (BioLink Case™)
Hi all—I'm Travis, a cardiac arrhythmia survivor and former EMT working to bring a new MedTech device to life. I’ve invented the BioLink Case™, a modular cellphone case designed to support remote cardiac monitoring. It’s built with proprietary materials and a discrete electronics pod, and it’s already received early clinical endorsement.
I’m now looking for help with prototyping—specifically:
• Referrals to engineers or firms with experience in medical device prototyping, especially wearables or mobile-integrated sensors
• Advice on materials, electronics integration, or low-volume manufacturing
• Any leads on accelerators, grant programs, or MedTech networks that support early-stage founders
If you know someone, have experience, or just want to brainstorm, I’d be incredibly grateful. I’m building this from the ground up through my LLC and pushing toward pilot deployment. Every connection counts.
Thanks for reading—and for any help you can offer. Have yourselves a blessed day.

Likely will be outdated in a year or so. They are improving the biosensors on cellphones, if you haven't noticed.

Heart rate and even blood pressure can already be measured now. No add ons at all. It's done through the camera. Yet they talking about other biosensors in the near future.

Such a device has already been out and widely used for years now.

@gregloa Oh. What's it called?

Heart monitor. It records heart rhythm and transmits the data via cellular network directly to your cardiologist.

@gregloa Well, of course, but my invention is nothing more than a standard cellphone case with an added material and an electronics pod. You buy both the case and the pod together. When you upgrade phone models, send the case back for reuse or recycling, and pop the pod in the new case. The case-and-pod package is about $100.00, with a new case running only about $30.00.

And, the worst enemy of a clear ECG reading is motion. My invention uses the phone's own motion sensors to compensate for movement and provide the clearest picture of your heart health available outside the hospital or doctor's office. If you need to share the information, the medics on board the ambulance, hospital ER, or your own doctor, simply plug in a USB cable, and they can access the real-time data on your heart rhythm. It can detect 10 different arrhythmias and screen for COPD, stroke, and certain drug toxicities.

So:
Clear data, low price point, hospital-grade accuracy, easy sharing with caregivers.

What do you think?
