The device you outlined can be designed and eveloped with our background in
biomedical microsensors.  There is no existing device in the market. The
work may take one to two year-engineer time.

Packaging is a problem.  You said packaging solution exist. can you tell me
how?  (for long term implant or shortterm insertion)
