Handheld near-infrared tissue oxygenation imaging

Snapshot NIR® is a handheld, non-invasive imaging system that assesses tissue oxygenation in real time — helping clinicians make critical decisions in wound care, surgery, and vascular assessment.

As a full-service product design studio, our team guided the project from early concept sketches through detailed prototyping and final production support. Along the way, we translated the client's vision into a durable product that meets rigorous standards while remaining simple to operate.

The thoughtful form factor, rugged construction, and straightforward interface demonstrate how hardware product development and industrial design services come together to support real people in real-world conditions — where clarity and reliability matter most.
