Heidi launches a mic for AI scribe – why? 🔥

Australian health tech company Heidi has launched a wearable microphone called Heidi Remote to improve AI-assisted clinical documentation for healthcare providers. The 21-gram device clips onto clothing and provides 14 hours of battery life, capturing audio offline in noisy environments before syncing later when connectivity is available. For eye care professionals, this technology could streamline patient consultations by automatically documenting visit notes, allowing optometrists to focus more on patient care rather than manual record-keeping. The device addresses common issues with existing consumer microphones that aren’t designed for clinical workflows, offering encrypted security and frequent disinfection capabilities essential for medical environments.
