Recently, Prodrive Technologies has gained another partner in the student team: InMotion.

In 1882 Nikola Tesla did a fundamental discovery in physics: the Rotating Magnetic Field. In 1971 Paul C. Lauterbur followed up with his Magnetic Resonance Imaging, or MRI, invention. After many years of research on July 3, 1977 in five hours the first MR image of a human body was made. Three years later the first commercial MRI scanner was introduced by FONAR Corporation.

Prodrive Technologies has been developing critical components in the Medical market for over 15 years.  Most recently they have pushed the envelope in one of the most important components in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), the RF amplifier.
