RTX Telehealth Monitor keeps you in contact with your doctor {Engadget}
Nov 19th 2007 7:47PM Just as an FYI to some Engadget visitor, telehealth is nothing new, and devices such as this have been around for quite a few years. A couple that comes to mind are the McKesson/HealthHero HealthBuddy and the Honeywell HomMed system. The Honeywell system even has a wireless network transmission system called "SkyNet", lol. The HealthHero is in widespread use in the Boston VA system. The problem with the whole concept is that is incredibly expensive for the healthcare agency to deploy, and the Medicare system is slow to begin any reimbursement systems.
NBA "Hardwood Classics Game", 70's style silent broadcast meets 2006-style high definition {Engadget HD}
Jan 25th 2006 1:04PM SportsChannel Boston (currently Fox Sports New England) did this in the late 90's for a Boston Celtics game. They had a couple cameras in a typical seat location and rarely switched the active. There was no announcer. Obviously it was not in HD, but it was a really neat experiment for the time.
