1) Reduce the development effort expended on components and concentrate their resources on features that differentiate the product.
2) Cut their bill-of-material costs by reducing the total number of components.
3) Miniaturize the handset.
Medity represents a comprehensive solution that can help manufacturers clear these and other hurdles. It is a well-integrated platform consisting of the following 5 components.
