Where Ileria’s Mission Took Shape

After two early setbacks in the energy sector, Ileria’s founding team pivoted toward healthcare — marking the beginning of its journey in life-saving innovation.

Identifying The Critical Need

Driven by the urgency of cardiovascular disease, we identified CPR as a life-saving intervention with major gaps and developed an early concept for an automated CPR device tailored to clinical needs.

Market-Driven Pivot

Initial concepts didn’t meet clinical expectations. Through direct market research and feedback, we identified other needs — leading to a strategic shift toward helping to performing CPR manually.

First CPR Feedback Prototype

We built our first physical prototype to support manual CPR. Designed for real-time feedback, the device was used to test functionality and explore how to best assist nurses during resuscitation.

Version 4: Hardware Meets Software

We redesigned the internal architecture due to a problem in v.3 — introducing major electrical upgrades and launching our first embedded OS.

Physical Form Validated

We tested over 40 printed casings to refine the device’s shape, grip, and durability. These iterations helped us finalize the injection mold — while the internal electronics were still under development.

Version 5: Circuit Redesign Due to Body

When the casing changed, the circuitry had to follow — and so began the ping-pong match between Ileria’s electrical and mechanical engineers.

Version 6: Circuit Redesign

We redesigned the internal circuitry to reduce dependency on rare components and improve stability. This version introduced a new PCB layout — optimized for manufacturability and long-term reliability.

Version 8: Safety Under Pressure

Version 8 failed the high-voltage test during simulated emergency conditions (One of the most disappinting days at Ileria). This setback led us to discover new techniques for improving electrical safety.
