U.S. army awards LiveData small business support

LiveData has been identified for participation in the U.S. Army’s Commercialization Pilot Program (CPP) to accelerate the transition of its data integration and display technology from development to implementation. LiveData will use the additional support in its work on the integrated clinical environment with CIMIT’s Medical Device Plug-and-Play (MD PnP) team.

LiveData, based in Cambridge, Mass., a data integration and display technology company, was identified for additional support in its Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant from the U.S. Army’s Telemedicine and Advanced Technology Research Center. The additional support will be used to enable OR systems such as health IT software systems, patient monitors and tracking systems.

The result will be managed by a system known as MD-ICEMAN, using an architecture for integrating medical technologies established by the MD PnP team. The CPP support will help the company bridge the gap to commercial deployment in military hospitals.
