The company sells a research version of its product to researchers and universities and a simplified version to Professional sports teams for training and fitness. The remote physiological sensing and biomechanical measurements are used for first responders and soldiers to remotely manage personnel in dangerous situations and make command decisions if someone is injured. These systems transmit the data across VHF radios and satellite.
