A Twitter user found himself perplexed today when he opened an older electrocardiogram
measurement instrument and found the components belonged to a Game Boy Advance.
The instrument is made by German company Medical Imaging Electronics and uses a wave produced by the ECG to electronically control a separate recording or imaging apparatus. At first look, it seems like any standard medical device. When opened, it’s revealed that the device’s screen and electronic parts belong to a Game Boy Advance, deconstructed and embedded inside. The Verge has contacted Medical Imaging Electronics for comment. https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2017/9/21/16339122/ecg-powered-game-boy-advance
