Madison, Wisconsin based WiscMed®, maker of the innovative Wispr digital otoscope, has announced a design upgrade to the Wispr digital otoscope and is offering a free exchange program for existing customers.
“The new design changes make the Wispr otoscope even better. We’ve increased the robustness of a tool our customers have come to rely on,” said Dr. James Berbee, founder and CEO of WiscMed®.
Major changes to the new hardware include a larger rubber bezel and an improved camera connection. The larger rubber bezel increases the robustness of the device in the advent of an accidental drop. The improved camera connection increases the reliability of the camera signal to the Wispr.
