The optical challenge of the total body scanner

9/09/2022.

The engineering tasks of the iToBoS project can be divided into two main groups. On the one hand, the design and construction of the total body scanner, that is the hardware. On the other hand, the design and implementation of the data processing and artificial intelligence software that will analyse all the information (skin images and clinical data) and generate a comprehensive output for the clinicians.

In this article, we will focus on the hardware side of the project (mostly WP3 -Specifications & WP5 – Development) and, in particular, on the special optical system needed to acquire high-resolution images of the skin of the patients.
