"Interactive EKG Model" - This product is a teaching tool for medical students and can also be used in a cardiologist office during patient consultations. It includes a model heart that will show different cardiac conditions by demonstrating the electrical activity within the heart, as well as a 12-lead EKG wave to match it. The device interfaces with a computer screen. This device also includes a clear plastic torso that demonstrates where EKG electrodes should be placed, as well as a smaller model heart that will show the different views of the 12 leads.

Miller’s Get Up ‘N’ Go innovation is a set of retractable armrests for standard walkers that slide beside the user to assist in transitions of sitting and standing.

MilkSafe Storage Device - The MilkSafe team is prototyping an affordable lean-in-concept cooling container to store mother’s milk at appropriate temperatures for up to 16 hours. In low-income nations, such as Haiti, where electricity, refrigeration, and ice are not readily or reliably available, the team intends to use this product to facilitate storing mother’s milk while she is away from her infant at work and help reduce the number of infant deaths there due to malnutrition.
