"Named the Swift Ray 1, the real-life Star Trek ‘tricorder' is a novel point-of-care hyperspectral imaging device that allows the acquisition of medical-grade images through a smartphone. Hyperspectral imaging acquires a multi-dimensional image dataset, called a hypercube, that provides diagnostic information about tissue physiology, morphology, and composition. The Swift Ray 1 device is equipped with near- and long-wave infrared sensors, violet light sources, and visible range LEDs, thereby allowing the simultaneous acquisition of visible light, infrared thermography, and bacterial fluorescence images as a hypercube. The device also integrates into the Swift Skin and Wound app, enabling precise wound area measurement, temperature quantification, and fluorescence area quantification…"
