A few years after building a synthetic human skeleton Gaumard designed a childbirth simulator to aid in the education of village midwives located around the world. Various task-trainers of shapes and sizes were developed over the years which you can witness from their company history page.

However, the release of Noelle s565 in 2000 was a serious turning point for Gaumard Scientific. Soon afterwards Gaumard released a full range of tether-less manikins, which today have become the s3201 Hal series, the S3000 Susie series, the Baby Hal S3010 series and the S3005 pediatric series. At IMSH 2012 Gaumard also unveiled the Surgical Chloe high-fidelity manikin. The company also provides nursing simulation scenarios as well as other healthcare education learning curriculum.
