Cell Phone SDK

The World's First Ultrasound Machine Based on a Cell Phone

Working under a Microsoft Research grant, Cell Phone as a Platform for Healthcare, we modified commercially available USB ultrasound probes to work with a smart phone and developed the SDK presented, here.

• This work was presented at TEPR+ in February, 2009: Presentation
• This work will also be discussed at Microsoft Research TechFest 2009 at the end of February.
• Microsoft Research also published a white paper on this technology. (to be posted once permission is granted)
