CPRGlove the perfect fit
Centen and Patel demonstrate their winning technology.
Things are looking good for the inventors of the CPRGlove, a portable device that guides the wearer in performing CPR correctly. Corey Centen and Nilesh Patel, the two young Canadians behind the glove, were recently awarded US$15,000 in the Collegiate Inventors Competition in Pasadena, CA. Centen and Patel invented the glove as undergrads at McMaster and launched Atreo Medical Inc., now a MaRS client, to commercialize their idea. Over the past year, the CPRGlove has won awards and attracted media attention on both sides of the border. According to Gizmodo, a popular gadget blog, the glove is “badass…like a Nintendo Power Glove.”
Badass and life-saving – what more could you want in an invention?
