Open-source patient monitors and a smartwatch run a single codebase across RP2040, nRF5340 and STM32+ESP32 hardware using Zephyr; dozens of custom drivers were written (about ten sensor drivers and several display drivers like SH8601 and IL9881). Data pipeline uses Zbus events and RTIO, with earlier sampling at 128/256 Hz moved to 2,000 samples per second per channel on the M4, and issues encountered include nRF53 XIP keeping flash alive and blocking I2C/SPI RTIO calls.
