Accessories
The Ilera-Scope can be equipped with a redesigned headset piece. This will allow the user to plug the headset into the stethoscope's aux port.
This aux cord housing lets the stethoscope fit within the housing.
The wireless charging dock will help the Ilera-Scope be more mobile, resulting in the users, being able to use the Ilera-Scope throughout the day with minimum plug-in charging needed.
The left side (green gauge bar) of the dock displays hows much the Ilera-Scope is currently charged, while the right (red gauge bar) shows how much battery is left in the charging dock.
