TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a new comprehensive development model that captures all aspects of device development and commercialization from early-concept selection to post-market surveillance, based on best-practice analysis and in-depth interviews with more than 80 seasoned experts actively involved in the development, commercialization, and regulation of medical devices.

TL;DR: Through leveraging the sensor capabilities of Google Glass, SnapCap enables hands-free digital image capture, and the tagging and transfer of images to a patient’s EMR, and compared to the state of the art in digital wound care photography, the Epic Haiku application.

TL;DR: This work presents Bloctopus, a modular electronic prototyping toolkit that allows direct electrical interfacing over USB, and physical interfacing with LEGO blocks, and shows that the modules can be programmed with a simplified data flow model in a web-based visual programming interface.

TL;DR: The insight-value-perception model for user-centered design was constructed and it was shown that managing perceptions toward product use through performance data positively influenced product adoption among the cases studied to a greater degree than did market demand or regulatory clearance.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results of a creative prototyping experiment (N = 86) that explores how tool modularity influences the creative design process, using a browser-based crowd platform (Amazon's Mechanical Turk), participants created electric "creature circuits" with LEDs in a virtual prototyping environment.
