UltraFAST
Ultrasound is widely used in clinical diagnostics, yet many incoming residents and students lack confidence and proficiency due to inconsistent training and a lack of objective feedback. Our device fills this gap by providing real-time, haptic feedback that helps trainees develop the muscle memory needed for accurate, consistent imaging.
We developed a lightweight, attachable haptic feedback device designed to assist medical students and residents in mastering proper ultrasound probe pressure. The device uses a calibrated force-sensitive resistor (FSR) to measure real-time applied force and provides visual (LED) and tactile (vibration) feedback when the pressure falls within or outside the optimal range. It is powered by an ESP32 microcontroller and fits onto standard ultrasound probes without altering their functionality.
We offer a significantly improved experience at a fraction of the cost
Our initial market includes medical schools, residency programs, and simulation labs seeking affordable, scalable training tools. Long-term expansion can target global medical education, especially in resource-limited settings. Marketing will focus on cost-effectiveness and ease of integrations to multiple models.
