Health Science

Medical breakthroughs, clinical therapy advancements, and growing/aging populations worldwide are all contributing to the explosive growth in Health Sciences. Larger integrated networks that connect all devices to gather and use data in multiple ways require intelligent synchronicity. Use of FPGA modules is expanding through all areas of this market. Design engineers need powerful and flexible FPGA modules to accommodate this convergence.

Opal Kelly FPGA modules have been instrumental in the deployment of many recent innovations in health science:

  • Bioinformatics and DNA sequencing
  • High-resolution 3D image reconstruction for medical imaging
  • Sensing technologies for clinical balance recovery therapies helping concussion and stroke patients
  • Real-time imaging solutions to assist surgeons in the operating room
  • Intuitive surgical and minimally invasive surgical robotics

Our extensive selection of FPGA modules and accessories range from simple and low-cost to highly sophisticated multichannel devices. Platform support includes Windows, macOS, and Linux on both x86 and ARM architectures. Our FrontPanel software simplifies module programming. We provide the right device tailored to your project and budget, and ultimately, faster time-to market for Health Sciences applications.

Customer Deployments

Plexon

Plexon

Plexon developed the Optogenetic Controller, leveraging two custom boards created by the Plexon team, with an Opal Kelly FPGA module and USB interface.

The product includes four channels of programmable current drivers that can deliver in excess of 1.1 A each for driving high-powered LEDs. The high-powered LEDs in turn generate the light to do the optogenetic research.

Ilinois

University of Illinois

Cancer affects one in three people worldwide. Surgery remains the primary curative option for localized cancers, but good prognoses require complete removal of primary tumors and timely recognition of metastases.

To expand surgical capabilities and enhance patient outcomes, University of Illinois developed a six-channel color/near-infrared image sensor inspired by the mantis shrimp visual system that enabled near-infrared fluorescence image guidance during surgery.
