Infosys Wins Global Award For Excellence In Biomedical Engineering

Infosys, a global leader in technology and consulting, has been recognized as a winner in the 2013 Simulating Reality contest, organized by MSC Software, the worldwide leader of multidiscipline simulation solutions. The global contest recognized Infosys for its use of next generation technologies for innovation in the area of engineering design. The winning team at Infosys developed an active three-dimensional model that simulates the working of the human heart. The model provides medical professionals and scientists with a near real-life scenario to improve understanding of the complexities of human heart disorders.

News highlights

• Dattatraya Parle, Principal Consultant and Anirudha Ambulgekar, Engineering Analyst, at Infosys Engineering Services, in collaboration with medical experts, designed the award-winning model of the human heart
• The model simulates the heart’s functioning, in particular the deformation of heart tissues due to certain stress conditions. This will help medical professionals diagnose heart disorders faster and with a higher level of precision
• The model will also help medical device manufacturers test and validate implants to detect and correct any anomalies quickly. This is expected to lead to better-designed medical devices, faster regulatory and compliance approval and improved time-to-market for those devices
• The advanced engineering concepts developed by the team can be directly leveraged for other areas of biomedical research and development, such as modeling and validation of prosthetics
• Other winners of this year’s awards include NASA, Jaguar and Land Rover. The winners were chosen for their ability to demonstrate leading-edge product design, and showcase business benefits of the product and the impact of the product on human society or industry
