About the project:

Overall objective of the project is to promote the attraction of additional human resources to science by forming a new interdisciplinary scientific group, which will attract young scientists and foreign scientists to scientific and research work. The established group will develop and test new technologies and devices for the acquisition and processing of biomedical images.

Specific (scientific) objective of the project is to develop and clinically approve innovative methods and devices for non-invasive multimodal skin imaging and processing to identify and classify specific skin lesions and to provide non-contact monitoring of cardiac and circulatory function.
