Enlight

Animal Stimulator Development and Miniaturization Program

Garrett Technologies, Inc. collaborated with Enlight to develop a compact, battery-powered animal stimulation platform designed for tumor research in rodent models. The program spanned concept refinement, voltage gradient modeling, mechanical design, electrical system architecture, embedded firmware, and mobile application development.

With a focus on precise radio frequency voltage delivery and implantable lead systems, Garrett delivered a fully integrated stimulator solution through a structured engineering process—including bench testing, lab validation, and support for preclinical animal studies.
