According to the American company, the microscope can analyze visual indicators, such as heat maps and object boundaries, to determine the presence of cancer cells or any other diseases in samples taken from human tissue. The microscope aims to create a system that can be integrated into existing optical microscopes in hospitals and clinics, as microscopes equipped with the “Augmented Reality Microscope” system provide a variety of visual comments, such as texts, arrows, lines, heat maps, and animations, each of which is designed for distinct evaluation purposes. Google first announced this project in 2018, but it has not yet been used to diagnose patients. There are currently 13 prototypes of Google’s artificial intelligence-based augmented reality microscope, and it still needs further testing before […]
