Presto Engineering helps companies design intelligent sensor interface ASICs for industrial markets ranging from transport and cold-chain logistics, production machinery and surveillance, smart buildings, to automation and preventive maintenance technologies.

 

Our unique combination of capabilities includes mixed-signal, wireless technology, ultra-low power, and seamless sensor integration for digitized data collection. Presto Engineering offers a full turn-key solution from design, testing and tape-out, to delivery of finished goods.

Driving next generation industrial applications need 3 areas to highlight (like medical examples below)

Wearable applications and intelligent bandages

Our custom-design small-size ASIC integrates with multiple 3rd party biosensors, enabling smart monitoring, data logging and wireless transmission of encrypted data to mobile phones or other handheld devices. This enables expanding existing application capabilities in areas such as virus control, diabetes monitoring and drug compliance monitoring, thereby improving and accelerating diagnostics.

Another application example may be a skin patch with embedded sensor, which continuously measures parameters and transmits data to a mobile phone for analysis.

Point of care (POC)

Our ASIC technology enables downsizing point of care diagnostic equipment, making it portable, fast, and easy to use so that devices can be taken to patients rather than requiring patient to be next to stationary equipment.

By minimizing portable equipment like pocket ultrasound scanners, ECG monitors, blood pressure monitors, saturation monitors and others, we facilitate local screening, remote testing, and faster diagnosis.

Quick tests

Using built-in data converters and IoT solutions such as NFC/UHF, our miniaturized ASIC enables quick dissemination of acquired data for further analysis and rapid diagnostics. This can be applied to quick tests related to fertility, infectious diseases (e.g. COVID-19), drugs, and alcohol.

The digitalization of screening tests enables faster analysis and response time. Tests can be conducted locally with results transmitted wirelessly for rapid central monitoring and analysis.
