Transonic Scisense is a medical device company focused on micro-sensor technology used to monitor cardio dynamics in animals as small as mice. Transonic Scisense is creating a new product line (implantable catheter) which requires an absolute pressure sensor of very small size. Transonic Scisense's intended production process for such a product is based on purchasing the existing sensors on the market and building the catheter around it. Beside cost factor, this limits the functionality of the catheter and needs excessive engineering research and development to build the micro-sensor catheter. It also limits the company's capability for future innovation.

Transonic Scisense是一家专注于微传感器技术的医疗设备公司，该技术用于监测像老鼠一样小的动物的心脏动力学。Transonic Scisense正在创建一个新的产品线（植入式导管），该产品线需要非常小尺寸的绝对压力传感器。 Transonic Scisense针对此类产品的预期生产过程是基于购买市场上现有的传感器并围绕其构建导管。除了成本因素外，这限制了导管的功能，并且需要过多的工程研究和开发来构建微传感器导管。这也限制了公司未来的创新能力。
