Omega Medical needed to “spruce up” a concept they had for a women’s medical biopsy devise. The mechanical concept was figured out and protected with patents but the device shape and features were considered too generic looking and not ergonomically appropriate for both left and right handed doctors. Bazza Design was asked to look into creating a more suitable shape that would fit the hand comfortably, not be “handed”, would be able to perform the procedure in multiple ways and have a softer, friendlier medical looking form. Bazza Design also was tasked with creating 3D CAID for the final form and oversaw the creation of prototype models. The design concepts were shown to a collective of doctors which in turn gave vital feedback at check points in the design process.
