Method and device for examining the skin

This invention describes a system that takes a picture of a person's skin using a camera. That image is then fed into a computer program that uses pre-programmed rules and electronic pattern recognition to look for suspicious spots. If a suspicious spot is found, the system identifies its location and shows it to the user.

Why it matters: Filed before the widespread adoption of deep learning and powerful mobile processors. Modern AI and machine learning algorithms can now perform the electronic pattern recognition and analysis with significantly higher accuracy and efficiency, potentially even on a smartphone camera.

Status: ExpiredProtection ended and was never renewed
