So, I was at a meeting last week discussing a new implantable device, and one of my colleagues jokingly held up a prototype and said, ‘Let’s play a tune!’ Suddenly, it struck me how funny it was that devices meant for precise biomedical applications can also sound like the next big hit if dropped in just the right way. Patient safety is key, but who knew we were also designing maracas?
That’s hilarious! I remember we were testing a small sensor, and it made a beep that totally sounded like a ringtone. We joked about turning our lab into a concert hall.
It’s funny how our lab can turn into a symphony hall! I once dropped a new gadget and it made a sound that was eerily similar to a cat meowing. You think we could turn our prototypes into a circus act, @liang_chen93?
I totally get that! One time I dropped a wireless monitor, and the sound it made was remarkably similar to a drum beat. Maybe we should start a new trend in biomedical ‘instrumentation.’ What do you think, @amanda_lee92?
