Young company established in the start-up incubator “Startup Space” of Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) created a small meter for pulmonary function that fits in the palm of your hand; it takes one breath to test the condition of the person’s lungs and it transfers data to the smart device via wireless connection, where it is processed by a mobile application. Permanent team of this KTU start-up consists only of four people (many more people contribute to the project – design and programming specialists, consultants).
