Projectdetails

Introduction

Oivi provides affordable eye care for all and prevents unnecessary blindness by providing a low-cost camera for retinal (fundus) photography, with fully automated image capture and diagnostics.

Problem Statement

Oivi is a point-of-care device for eye screening of diabetic retinopathy (DR). DR affects over 160 million people worldwide and is the most common cause of blindness among working-age adults. Yet, early detection can successfully prevent vision loss in 95% of the cases.

Current Challenges

Current solutions for DR screening are expensive and require extensive training, which limits accessibility to patients, especially in developing countries.

Oivi Solution

Oivi is a unique combination of:

  • Automated
  • Easy-to-use
  • Low-cost
  • Integrated Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence solutions (for image capturing and DR diagnostics)
  • Highly portable design

Project Goals

Within the iScan project, we want to:

  1. Mature the device and its diagnostic functionalities
  2. Clinically validate our solution
  3. Assure regulatory approvals
