In response to these trends, Covestro developed the Maestro, a demonstrative device that provides simulated, non-invasive measurements and improved molecular diagnostic testing. The device is a breakthrough in material innovation, showcasing how Covestro’s advanced materials enable smarter, potentially more resource-efficient solutions at the intersection of healthcare and electronics, helping to shape the future of connected care.
More specifically, the device marries IMSE® (In-Mold Structural Electronics) technology with Makrolon® polycarbonate and other high-performance materials from Covestro. IMSE parts offer numerous advantages over traditional electro-mechanical assemblies. By embedding electronics and structure in a single part, IMSE maximizes resource efficiency, design flexibility, and reliability. This allows for intuitive and illuminated seamless smart surfaces for various human to machine interface (HMI) controls.
