Scientists Hack Cellphone to Analyze Blood, Detect Disease
Fascinating story in Wired about how scientists have hacked consumer cellphone cameras to do cheap and quick blood analysis. Anlysing blood for signs of disease and infection previously required equipment that cost tens of thousands of dollars. I presume this would work even more effectively with cheap consumer digital cameras?
Stories like this reaffirm my macro-faith in the idea that it's 'going to be all right' in the end.
