An Auckland electronic design company expects substantial growth overseas in the next 12 to 18 months.
In less than six years, Zephyr has transformed itself from a consulting service to one that reckons its creations save lives.
Its flagship product is the bio-harness, a chest strap that measures the vital signs of individuals involved in hazardous or potentially dangerous situations.
Product manager John Molloy says it is about knowing when to get someone out of danger, rather than retrieving a body once it's too late.
Hec says Zephyr has ties with Stansford University in the United States and space agency NASA, with 99% of its business is offshore.
