How Sendance Evolved its Advanced Sensor-Grid Platform and Addressable Market into Health Tech Solutions with BioT

Sendance creates advanced sensor grids that are thin, stretchable, and can be integrated into textiles, foam, and 3D-printed materials. The technology provides detailed data collection on attributes such as temperature, pressure, force, and motion.  This offers a platform for many use cases.   

The BioT cloud platform allows Sendance to tailor sensor grids into products such as orthotics, prosthetics, and sports technology and address the unique requirements that come from both sports and, even more so, medical device applications.

Sendance’s sensor grid detects temperature, pressure, force, and motion, providing detailed data collection. The collected data is then managed and analyzed through their modular cloud system, which offers real-time reporting and integration capabilities. This setup is beneficial for applications in orthotics, prosthetics, sports technology, and research. The BioT cloud platform provides secure connectivity to each sensor and offers a modular setup that allows users to customize their data analysis needs and insights for their specific use case.

The Opportunity

Sendance looked for a flexible platform that allowed them to support the different use cases of sports and health-tech.  With that, Sendance first and foremost provided the essential certifications needed for healthcare-related markets.  BioT brought forward these much-needed regulatory, privacy and operational certifications that addressed their core requirement including high availability, versatile data structures, and easy customization. Sendance customer benefit from an easy integration of sensors into their devices in the same ways as Sendance benefits from the easy integration of the BioT data management platform into its product offering.

Further, Sendance looked for platforms that increase efficiency for the R&D team.  BioT, again, met those needs through simplified integrations, fully-managed cloud service, and breadth of developer tools (no-code, low-code, and pro-code).

The Solution

Sendance chose BioT’s no code, self-service platform for several reasons: its technical and commercial flexibility.

For example:

  • BioT’s easy-to-integrate API and rapid customizations, such as multi-vendor and multi-distributor environments, aligned perfectly with Sendance’s customer needs. 
  • BioT’s customizable backend and frontend allowed Sendance to build compelling User Experiences (UX) without requiring those unique tech skills.  
  • BioT’s pricing model offered a compelling TCO that addressed both their near-term and long-term needs and vision.   

This all enabled Sendance to launch products with key features that enhanced market appeal and differentiation and the right total cost point.
