RF group Toumaz joins health alliance standards body

By John Walko

LONDON RF chip developer Toumaz Technology Ltd has become a leading player in the Continua Health Alliance, an industry organization promoting interoperability across technology-based health devices and networks.
The group, seen as an important driver for standards and technology collaboration in the area of medical electronic devices such as body monitors, includes companies such as Intel, Philips, Cisco, Medtronic, Motorola and Samsung.

Toumaz (Abingdon, England) has recently tested its integrated Sensium platform in a device aimed at health and lifestyle monitoring. The company says the chip, which taped-out on Infineon's 130-nm RF CMOS process in November 2006 less than 18 months after initial specification, has met all targeted accuracy and performance parameters in initial functional testing.

The platform incorporates an ultra-low power wireless transceiver (including both RF and baseband functionality), reconfigurable sensor interface and digital block with a low power 8051 processor and memory on a single 4 x 4 mm chip.

The company says it has already started participating in standards setting activities in the Alliance.

"Toumaz's vision of proactive, cost-effective personal connected healthcare is shared by the members of the Continua Alliance," said Toumaz Technology Co-Founder and COO, Keith Errey in a statement.

"As the provider of a key enabling technology in the emerging personal telehealth ecosystem, it is obviously vital for Toumaz to take a role in this important organization and support it in its aim - to deliver highly integrated systems that work together to improve the quality of people's lives," Erey added.

AppliedSensor Provides Hydrogen Detection Sensors for

First Hydrogen Serial Car in the Premium Segment

Warren, New Jersey March 16, 2007

AppliedSensor today announced that its HSS-440 hydrogen gas detection module will be incorporated in the BMW Hydrogen 7, the world's first hydrogen-drive luxury performance automobile for everyday use. The Hydrogen 7 automobiles are being built by BMW in a limited series and deployed to selected users in the U.S. and other countries.

The BMW Hydrogen 7, which made its world premiere at the Los Angeles Auto Show in December 2006, uses hydrogen combustion technology available through a dual-mode drive system. At the flick of a dashboard-mounted switch, the driver can tap either a 19.5-gallon gasoline tank or the 17.6-pound liquid hydrogen tank, thereby increasing range and reducing emissions to water vapor.

The AppliedSensor HSS-440 module incorporates high-performance sensing based on advancements in Field Effect (FE) technology designed specifically for fuel cell and hydrogen-powered vehicles. The modules are mounted in the car cabin, under the hood and in the trunk area to detect hydrogen gas leaks at levels far below the established lower explosion limit of four percent in-air.

AppliedSensor is the only supplier that can meet BMWs demanding requirements for hydrogen detection in terms of sensitivity, reliability, speed of response, and operational safety, said AppliedSensor CEO Dr. Robert Straubinger. Our development of sensors for hydrogen-powered vehicles demonstrates our commitment to help drivers lower emissions and reduce their dependence on fossil fuels.

The BMW Group (www.bmwgroup.com) is the only manufacturer of automobiles and motorcycles worldwide that concentrates entirely on premium standards and outstanding quality for all its brands and across all relevant segments

AppliedSensor (www.appliedsensor.com) is a leading provider of gas sensor solutions for air quality, safety and control.

Anyone with a theory on what looks like a huge rollover trade?

survived87 - 20 Dec 2007 18:41 - 19 of 22

No theory personally. But someone on another board had the opinion that it was a transfer between institutions via a broker. Perhaps SAAD were involved. If so, an RNS will follow.

Nanoscience Inc.
('Nanoscience' or the 'Group')

Toumaz Technology As Part of Consortium That Wins 7.1 million European
Community Grant

Nanoscience, the specialist niche investor in emerging technologies with strong
commercial propositions for the healthcare and electronic sectors, is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned subsidiary Toumaz Technology Limited ('Toumaz'), is part of a major collaborative research project that has been awarded a 7.1 million grant to fund the development of a portable blood glucose predictor system for diabetes patients.

The Personal Glucose Predictive Diabetes Advisor ('DIAdvisorTM') system is a
unique personalised blood glucose prediction tool that allows patients at any
time to actively and accurately predict their short-term blood glucose outlook
by the analysis of data retrieved from glucose measurements, insulin delivery
data and specific patient parameters, which will be captured by non-intrusive
body-worn wireless monitors based on Toumaz's breakthrough SensiumTM platform.

The grant award, made under the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) of the
European Community, will fund the four-year research and development project
into the DIAdvisorTM system. The large-scale project is being coordinated by
Novo Nordisk A/S, a world leader in diabetes care, and will be delivered by a
consortium of 13 medical, industrial and academic partners, including the
European Division of the International Diabetes Federation.

Toumaz's role in the project will be to implement the DIAdvisorTM hardware and
software platform, leverage the SensiumTM intelligent data acquisition platform
and networking infrastructure to enable multiple vital signs measurements from
non-intrusive body-worn monitors to be taken and merged with manually entered '
spot' measurements (such as food intake), providing the key data for the
creation of physiological mathematical modeling, control and prediction
algorithms. The resulting analysis and prediction information will then be able
to be wirelessly transmitted to a healthcare provider advisory service, with
recommended action and treatment advice presented to the patient via a handheld
mobile device such as a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA).

First stage data gathering and clinical trials are planned to start in August
2008, with initial data expected by the end of the year.

Dr Alison Burdett, Director of Technology for Toumaz commented:

'With DIAdvisorTM, we will be putting a sophisticated treatment advisor in the
hands of patients for the first time, empowering them in their own healthcare
management and significantly reducing the likelihood of serious complications
and recurrent hospitalisation due to poor glucose control. For healthcare
providers, DIAdvisorTM will have a significant positive impact on cost reduction for the treatment of diabetes.'

Guy Spelman CEO of Nanoscience commented:

'This is further good news from our investment in Toumaz and its development of
the SensiumTM platform. Recognition of the growing importance of the SensiumTM
platform in more sectors in the field of medicine provides further evidence of
its versatility and increasing acceptance across global leaders and government
bodies.'
