- There aremany adapters to turn a mobile device, such as an iPod Touch, into animage-capturing, diagnostic device. However, these can yield inconsistentresults because there is no standardization of lighting or distance. Inventorsat Nationwide Children's Hospital have developed a platform to use with amobile device that controls for light exposure and sample distance from the camera,thereby allowing for accurate and consistent sample analysis.
