After facemasks, a portable sanitisation device and an app to track those flouting quarantine regulations, the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT)-Bombay has recently come up with Ayu Devices, which works on supplying smart stethoscopes. The digital stethoscope developed by IIT-B students is used for remote auscultation (listening to chest sounds) and storing this in the records of the patient, so that it can be shared with other doctors.

Since the Coronavirus outbreak, several digital stethoscopes have been delivered to KEM Hospital by the Ayu Devices team. Apollo Hospital in Hyderabad has also asked for the device.
