Cameroon is experimenting with Africa’s first mobile system to send a bean signal (信号)over a wireless network. The system will give much needed medical aid to heart patients in poor areas. Arthur Zang invented the device called the Cardiopad. He was just 24 years old when he invented it. The Cardiopad allows heart examinations to be performed. The results of the tests are sent wirelessly to experts in other parts of the country who can understand them.

Simplice Momo is a 55-year-old heart patient in a poor area of the country. He says the device saves him time and money. It is too costly and difficult for him to see a heart expert in the city.

Cameroon has a population of about 22 million. But it only has 40 heart surgeons. Most are in the cities of Douala or Yaounde. Sometimes the heart experts needed can only be found outside the country. Now the device allows doctors to send patients medical information to experts in Europe.

Arthur Zang started the Cardiopad project five years ago. Then, the young computer engineer needed more training and $45,000 to make the device. His family did not have the money.

Bankers would not give him loans（贷款）. So he shared his idea on social media. The president of Cameroon,Paul Biya, provided him with the money for the project. Mr. Zang also received free online training from an engineering school in India.

The Cameroon scientific community considers the Cardiopad extremely effective. The device costs about $4000. The government of Cameroon has not been able to provide the device for hospitals in need.

Mr. Zang says he has had private investors （投资者）contact him. But he is more interested in investors who share his vision. That vision is not of money, but of better ways to help save people’s lives.
