PDi introduces it's new "Persona" patient monitor and extension arm

The healthcare market demands excellence at every turn. Not convinced that existing TV offerings met these demands, Priority Designs collaborated with PDi to create a better solution with the user in mind. The result is the PDi Persona personal color TV, a TV designed expressly for hospitals, dialysis clinics and nursing homes.

The unique soft curves of the design exude a comfortable presence that says state-of-the-art without overwhelming the surrounding space. Front mounted speakers and earphone jacks are easy to use and appreciated by other room occupants. The ergonomic molded grip makes positioning easy throughout the wide range of motion, while the exclusive SafeStop braking system ensures stable positioning for patient and staff safety. The simple tactile controls are intuitive to operate and protected by a membrane for efficient cleaning.

Priority Design's contribution to the project includes; 2-D concept development, 3-D CAD development of the monitor and arm joint housings, 3-D prototyping, control graphics, project management and overseas vendor coordination.
