VELOS is a smart drug delivery platform designed to address three major challenges in modern healthcare: injection pain, medication misuse, and limited treatment traceability. While healthcare is becoming increasingly connected and data-driven, conventional drug delivery methods still rely on invasive needles and manual administration processes, creating risks for both patients and healthcare professionals.

To overcome these limitations, VELOS integrates three core technologies into a single connected ecosystem. The Cryo-Gas Interchangeable System cools the treatment area before administration, reducing pain and discomfort. The Hybrid DDS (Drug Delivery System) combines microneedle-assisted delivery with microcurrent-based absorption enhancement, enabling efficient and minimally invasive drug administration.

VELOS also incorporates a Hermetic Smart Cartridge System that automatically identifies medication information, verifies treatment protocols, and supports precise dosage control. The sealed cartridge structure improves hygiene and safety while reducing the risk of contamination and medication errors.

In addition, VELOS digitally connects treatment records, medication histories, and administration data to improve traceability and support safer clinical decision-making. By combining pain-free delivery, medication safety, and treatment transparency, VELOS transforms conventional drug administration into a smarter, safer, and more connected healthcare experience.
