About

Affordable wearable ultrasound for continuous diagnostics

HorseShoe Imaging addresses the need for accessible diagnostic ultrasound in low-income and remote areas by developing a low-cost, portable wearable system. Unlike traditional, expensive ultrasound equipment, used only in clinical settings, this system features a flexible, silicone-encapsulated probe that conforms to the skin and simplifies manufacturing. The system includes a compact electronic unit with an FPGA and Arm Processor for real-time data processing and streaming. This innovation enables continuous monitoring for applications like prenatal care, cardiac evaluation, and sports biomechanics, making high-quality imaging accessible and practical in various settings
