History

Cometa was founded in Milan (Italy) in 2001 by a design­ers team with a long software/​firmware/​hardware expe­ri­ence, made in med­ical instru­ments design, extend­ing from low level bio­log­i­cal sig­nal acqui­si­tion, data elab­o­ra­tion and representation.

After sev­eral con­sul­tan­cies for the most promi­nent com­pa­nies in the mar­ket, the first autonomous project, a com­pletely wire­less EMG sys­tem, was devel­oped and patented in 2004. Sev­eral inno­v­a­tive solu­tions have been applied to this electromyograph sys­tem; start­ing from the most vis­i­ble ones, the absence of the ref­er­ence elec­trode, the minia­tur­iza­tion and auton­omy of the elec­trodes, to sev­eral oth­ers tech­ni­cal solu­tions that lead to an unmatched clean and read­able out­put EMG trace.

The prod­uct was licensed to a third com­pany that sold hun­dreds of units world­wide under the brand name “ZeroWire”. At the end of 2010, the licens­ing agree­ment expired and Cometa began sell­ing the renewed sys­tem directly, under the “Wave Wire­less EMG” brand name. If you are a Zerowire owner, and you need assis­tance, please do not hes­i­tate to con­tact us.

Even though the main com­pany activ­ity is at present of design­ing, pro­duc­ing and ser­vic­ing EMG wire­less sys­tems, other projects in the elec­tronic and med­ical fields have been suc­cess­fully car­ried out since Cometa creation:

High speed video cam­eras and dig­i­tal video proces­sors for motion analy­sis applications.
X-​ray video cam­eras and dig­i­tal video noise reduc­tion fil­ters for C — arc angiography.
Evoked poten­tial detec­tion and data record­ing for hear­ing aid implants.

If you are inter­ested in our wire­less tech­nol­ogy and design­ing skills, we can offer, in our field of com­pe­tence, fully cus­tomized prod­ucts and ser­vices for a num­ber of applications.
