summary
Partnership builds a clinician and patient interface: a Samsung tablet and handset plus a small communicator that translates the implant’s proprietary RF into Bluetooth/Android, secured with Knox and MDM. A regulated medical app is submitted while the device OS remains a commercial off‑the‑shelf platform.

File export via internal Wi‑Fi moves PDF reports to hospital storage; app delivery from first convo to ship is about six weeks. Samsung patient programmer Bluetooth cardiac pacemaker
