Test results
Results in the Development section come from the team’s own prototype testing in October 2026 using copper-tape and Velostat test grids. They are early engineering results, not clinical measurements.
Product and illustration status
Turnwise is in development. The mat diagram is a concept illustration. The pressure maps and chart use synthetic example data and do not represent patient measurements, tested product performance, or a validated clinical risk model. Specifications and team information marked as pending or in brackets remain to be completed.
