<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>NEW DELHI: Korean handset maker Samsung Electronics<\/a> on Wednesday said it is upcycling out-of-use Galaxy smartphones to create medical devices<\/a> for delivering ophthalmic healthcare in underserved communities in Vietnam, India, Morocco, and Papua New Guinea.

For this initiative, the handset maker has partnered with the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB) and Yonsei University Health System (YUHS) in Korea.

According to
Samsung<\/a>, the upcycling program is helping to address about 1 billion global cases of vision impairment that are preventable with timely diagnosis.

“People around the globe face barriers to accessing fundamental health care, and we saw an opportunity to engineer smart, innovative solutions that reuse products to drive more sustainable practices and make a positive impact in our communities,” said Sung-Koo Kim, VP of Sustainability Management Office, Mobile Communications Business at
Samsung Electronics<\/a>.

The Galaxy Upcycling program aims to create innovative use cases for Galaxy smartphones.

Through this program, an older Galaxy smartphone can be used for operating the EYELIKE fundus camera, which connects to a lens attachment for enhanced fundus diagnosis, while the smartphone is used for capturing images.

<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>The smartphone then leverages artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to analyse and diagnose images for ophthalmic diseases. The patient data is accurately logged in an app, which also suggests an affordable treatment regimen.

The diagnosis camera is claimed to screen patients for conditions that may lead to blindness, including diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration.

This development assumes importance as according to the
World Health Organization<\/a> (WHO), at least 2.2 billion people have a form of vision impairment and almost half of these cases were preventable or have yet to be addressed.

“The combination of using multiple optical technologies and artificial intelligence, coupled with camera performance of a Galaxy smartphone, created an affordable medical device that was just as capable as a fundus camera used by medical professionals. This not only solved a health issue but a growing environmental concern as well,” said Sangchul Yoon of Yonsei University Health System.

“IAPB is very pleased that
Samsung<\/a> is working closely with its member organizations to pilot these solutions. Working with Samsung allows our member organizations to deliver technology in pilot countries and build cooperative and constructive relationships in these regions,” said Drew Keys, Western Pacific Region (WPR) Coordinator at the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB).

Additionally, Samsung said it is aiming to collect 7.5 million tons of e-waste and make use of 500,000 tons of recycled plastic by 2030.

Furthermore, the fundus camera diagnosis equipment is said to be made with 35% recycled content and is designed for easy reuse.

银河系升级改造计划旨在为Galaxy智能手机创造创新的用例。

通过这个项目,一个年长的Galaxy智能手机可用于操作的眼状的眼底照相机,它连接到一个镜头附件增强基底诊断,而智能手机用于捕获图像。

智能手机然后利用人工智能(AI)算法分析和眼科疾病的诊断图像。病人数据准确地记录在一个应用程序,这也表明一个负担得起的治疗方案。

诊断相机是对病人进行条件筛选,声称可能会导致失明,包括糖尿病视网膜病变、青光眼、和年龄相关性黄斑变性。

这种发展假设是根据重要性世界卫生组织(世卫组织),至少有22亿人视力损伤的一种形式,几乎一半的病例可预防或尚未解决。

”的组合使用多个光学技术和人工智能技术,再加上相机Galaxy智能手机的性能,创建了一个负担得起的医疗设备,一样能够眼底相机所使用的医疗专业人员。这不仅解决了健康问题,越来越多的环境问题,“Sangchul Yoon说延世大学卫生系统。
