The Resuscitator, as it claims further, is a brilliantly designed new portable medical device intended for use by emergency responders to perform foolproof CPR techniques. The sophisticated electronic assistant is designed to ensure that chest compressions, the element of CPR most prone to human error, are administered perfectly by amateurs and professionals alike. The robotics developers have already prototyped and tested the device, making it an ideal candidate for Quantum’s global marketing assistance.

“The Resuscitator is an ingenious product that fits into our automation charter, and we think it will make an immediate impact in the medical devices market,” said Quantum CEO Robert Federowicz. “Its success will allow us to push forward with the commercialization of other PIAP innovations a little farther back in the development pipeline.”

Quantum is already evaluating several other robotic technologies for use in environmental cleanup, tactical emergencies and other booming industries.
