CellScope, based in Berkeley, came up with a way to attach a smartphone to a microscope a few years ago in order to test for TB in remote places and have doctors elsewhere analyze results [ BBC story: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8161775.stm ]. Their next device is an otoscope that attaches to the iPhone so you can take pictures of ear infections [ see the CellScope profile on LAUNCH: http://lnch.is/qTqQK0 ]. Whether the malaria app works or not, I have no doubt we'll see more health-related hardware and apps for mobile phones. |
