Micro Medical Robot System

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2311E09] Established in 2019, IMsystem Co., Ltd. has developed Korea’s first micro medical robot system for precision vascular interventional procedures, and is currently commercializing it.
Currently, IMsystem has completed the prototype production of a remote magnetic micro medical robot system for vascular intervention procedures, and the licensing process is in progress.

Micro medical robot system for precision vascular intervention procedures
Unlike existing vascular intervention procedures in which the operator manually manipulates surgical tools, the micro medical robot system for precision vascular intervention (IM_SuperMag_Clinic) uses a magnetic field control system installed at the bottom of the patient’s bed. It is a remote surgery system using a magnetic guide wire/catheter microrobot attached to a microrobot fitted at the end of the existing guide wire/catheter.


Existing procedures have limitations in that it is difficult to insert surgical tools into narrow blood vessels of complex shapes due to manual manipulation by the operator, so the results of the treatment depend on the operator’s skill level. In addition, in the case of complex procedures, not only does exposure to radiation from X-rays, etc., increase due to increased procedure time, but the number of patients who can receive the procedure is also limited due to operator fatigue.
IM_SuperMag_Clinic controls remote surgical tools through magnetic field control, and the operator performs the procedure using a joystick/3D mouse while viewing X-ray images in a separate space rather than inside the operating room.


By reducing fatigue and radiation exposure and improving the convenience of the procedure, the success rate of the procedure, the speed of patient recovery, and the number of daily patients can be increased. It can thus meet the needs of patients, operators, and hospitals, respectively.
Following the completion of prototype development has been completed, and domestic GMP and licensing are currently in preparation. The acquisition of a domestic license is expected by the end of 2025. For overseas, IMsystem is aiming for CE and FDA approval in 2028. And it is expected that it will be able to quickly advance into overseas markets after being exempted from clinical trials by receiving 510k equivalent recognition from the FDA.

Wearable Eye-exercise Device

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2311E08] IZON’s eye-exercise wearable device (Personal Scope-EX) is an eye-exercise device that helps to maintain and improve eyesight by allowing anyone to easily and comprehensively do all kinds of exercises for the eyes.
In today’s busy life, the eyes are often neglected or abused due to continuously living with seeing bright images, close and small things, on devices such as smartphones, tablets, PCs, laptop computers, TVs, and so forth. So, the eye also needs to be managed through exercise, and proper exercise for the eye can help to improve vision.


IZON’s eye exerciser has achieved the honor of having been selected as a winner of the “Well-Being Brands in Korea Customer Satisfaction Brands” for seven consecutive years.
Moreover, the product is being well-received not only in Korea but also in many other countries around the world, winning the Grand Award in the International Invention Innovation Competition in Canada, the Gold Medal at the International Exhibition of Inventions held in the USA, Russia, China, Poland, and Taiwan.
As our eyes are located inside the body based on the autonomic nervous system, it is quite difficult to do proper eye exercises except for simple vertical and horizontal eye movements or massages. However, it has been proven that only comprehensive movements can maximize the effect of eye exercises and keep eyes healthy.
IZON’s Personal Scope-EX is an eye exercise apparatus embedded with an iris training mechanism with an adjustable brightness function and perspective shift gaze.
Training programs enable users not only to do massages and simple eye movements, but also to do complex eye exercises with ease, which would be otherwise difficult to perform on one’s own. The device also allows users to check changes in their vision after doing exercises for five minutes.
When used daily, it naturally helps any users who are short-sighted, far-sighted, astigmatic or presbyopic or suffer from dry eyes even strabismus(squint) improve their vision and have normal vision to maintain, as it enables them to perform all necessary exercises for one’s eyes easily and simply.

Eco-Friendly SES Smart Water Meter

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2311E07] ShinDongA Electronics Co., Ltd. is the first Korean manufacturer to produce fluid vibration electronic water meters and is taking the lead in making 21st-century smart meters based on outstanding performance of its own brand, the ‘SES water meter.’
Unlike the previous mechanical water meter that detects flows through the internal impeller’s rotation, the manufacturer’s SES smart water meter measures flows through the Coanda Effect: fluid vibration electronic system.
As there is no separate driving part inside, the smart water meter has relative advantages in improving durability degradation caused by component wear and tear, and increasing measurement accuracy and is safer as there is no degradation in comparison with the mechanical water meter.


There is a stark difference when looking at the material used for the new product. While the existing product is made of brass (low-leaded/unleaded) from which a certain amount of harmful substances are emitted, the SES water meter is an eco-friendly product that does not generate harmful substances such as lead, zinc and formaldehyde as it uses Polyketone that is an engineering plastic material developed by Hyosung Chemical.
Moreover, the water meter is equipped with NB-IoT, Bluetooth and LoRa modules, making it unnecessary to attach additional devices, and comes in a compact size for anyone to easily install even in a narrow space.

Advanced Metering Infrastructure and Automatic Meter Reading
Such modules work together to transmit flow data that is collected through wireless AMI/AMR methods and saved in the server. And the data can be checked through the website and mobile application to immediately uncover any abnormalities.
As the mobile application is divided for managers/officers and users, a user is able to directly ascertain the amount consumed in his/her home.

Corrugated Optic Duct (COD) & Micro COD & Flexible Coiled Duct

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2311E05] The COD is mostly used to protect optic cables or even low-voltage power cables. The spiral-shaped corrugation gives a higher resistance against pressure or impact (100% safe against earthquakes). Easy duct installation is possible with a working life of over 50~100 years (easy maintenance).
The inner ducts (consisting in inner sub-ducts, from 2 to 9 inner sub-ducts) help to easily identify the cable types. Furthermore, having inner sub-ducts gives a higher protection when air blowing or pulling the cable through the duct (no cable-to-cable friction).


Flexible HDPE Conduit (FEP)
The FEP is mostly used for power cables or cables with wide diameter. The easy installation, flexibility, maintenance, resistance against pressure and impact make FEP very attractive when compared to HDPE or PVC pipes.
Iteco (Optiroad) is the foremost manufacturer of spiral-shaped corrugated pipes, conduits and ducts. The company was established in July 2000 and has been exporting its products worldwide since then.
Iteco (Optiroad) has successfully signed technical license agreements with partners in Japan, Taiwan, China, South Africa, the United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, the U.A.E., Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, and Bahrain. It has four venture factories in Saudi Arabia (2), South Africa (1), and Vietnam (1). It has recently got its products certified in Kazakhstan, the United Kingdom, and Australia.
Iteco (Optiroad) summarizes the special advantages of COD as follows:
It is available in long continuous lengths of 500m, 600m,1000m,1500mduct in one(1) coil.
COD is much stronger than traditional duct. The compressive load of COD is in excess of 2,500N-3200N while the compressive load of the traditional duct is around 450N.
The strength of COD guarantees 100 % safety against earthquakes.
In the UK, construction companies calculate that COD can be installed up to 20 ~ 30 times faster than
traditional duct.
UK construction companies calculate an overall reduction of 60-70% in installation cost.

  • Safer: Faster installation, lesser joints throughout the
    installation and shallower trenches provide a reduction in
    health and safety risks of up to 60-89%.
