J.D. and Matt were treated by a special guest, Phil Guthrie of Compliance-Insight, Inc. He helps inventors, small businesses with planning for FDA certification for Class 1, 2, and 3 medical devices. We discussed the various types of medical devices, and the increasing rigor and expense required to get certification. 

The three of them critiqued an Australian company that was pitching the Australian version of Shark Tank panel on a medical device for helping physiotherapists with the angle/degree of mobility or damage at a specific joint, it simply measured various angles with lasers and levels. The major critique was that there was no discussion about whether FDA or Australian equivalent regulatory compliance had been started. Further, the name "Halo" is just overblown in the medical space, and any mark related to medical devices was a very long shot.
