Infosys has been recognised as a winner in the 2013 Simulating Reality contest, organised by MSC Software, a leader of multidiscipline simulation solutions. The global contest recognised Infosys for its use of next generation technologies for engineering design innovation. The winning team at Infosys developed an active three dimensional model that simulates the working of the human heart. The model provides medical professionals and scientists with a near real-life scenario to improve understanding of the complexities of human heart disorders.
Dattatraya Parle, Principal Consultant and Anirudha Ambulgekar, Engineering Analyst, of Infosys Engineering Services, in collaboration with medical experts, designed the award winning model of the human heart. The model simulates the heart’s functioning, in particular the deformation of heart tissues due to certain stress conditions. This will help medical professionals diagnose heart disorders faster and with a higher level of precision. The model will also reportedly help medical device manufacturers test and validate implants, to detect and correct any anomalies quickly. This is expected to lead to better designed medical devices, faster regulatory and compliance approval and improved time-to-market for those devices.
Ashok Vemuri, Head of Americas, Global Head of Manufacturing and Engineering Services, Infosys said, “Bio-medical device manufacturers are looking for solutions that can help them not only design innovative devices but also accelerate testing and validation of products to enable faster time to market of their products. Infosys continues to push the boundaries of bio medical engineering to help our clients deliver better-designed devices to patients faster. This award is yet another testimony to our focus on accelerating innovation for our clients and our growing leadership in the engineering services space.”
Other winners of this year’s awards include NASA, Jaguar and Land Rover. The winners were chosen for their ability to demonstrate leading edge product design, showcase business benefits of the product and the impact of the product on human society or industry.
