Several research projects are ongoing in cooperation with the eye clinic at the University Hospital of Umeå. We are at the end of an ISO-standard study to complete the CE regulatory demands. A cross linking study recently began to evaluate possibility to detect biomechanical properties with the ART sensor technology. A two year follow-up of LASEK treated eyes will be completed in beginning of 2010, showing that the sensor perform on reshaped corneas.

Background information about our research and our products

BioResonator is based on the patents that resulted from joint research by Professor Sadao Omata and co-workers in Japan, and professor Olof Lindahl and co-workers at Umeå University in Sweden. BioResonators core technology is a resonating sensor made out of piezoelectric ceramics.
The R&D team has been, and still are, an active part of the development of the resonance technology, including the scientific verification of the technology and part of product development within the field of IOP-measurement.
The Research group has published more than one hundred scientific papers.

BioResonator have a wide range of experience in:
  • Basic research
  • Applied research
  • Product development
  • Building prototypes
  • Industrial productification
  • Commercialisation of medical devices
