Architecture Focus

Artificial Lungs architecture overview

A dedicated organ rendering now leads this page so the architecture can be reviewed without unrelated anatomy or demographic bias.

01 · Purpose

Why this branch exists

Maintain gas exchange and respiratory reserve while coordinating tightly with perfusion, cardiac support, and whole-body monitoring.

02 · Focus

Primary architecture themes

Oxygen and carbon-dioxide exchange in tandem with vascular routing.
Thoracic packaging, interface surfaces, and support-compatible monitoring.
Escalation paths between short-duration rescue support and longer-duration restorative pathways.
