Jointly developed by Medimaging Integrated Solution Inc. (MiiS) and Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), "Portable Edge AI-DR", was named Finalists for the 2022 Edison Best New Product Awards™!

The edge computing based screening solution, "Portable Edge AI-DR", is the very first innovation of analyzing fundus images by MiiS Digital Imaging Box (DIB 100), marking symptom locations, and is adopting user-centered design methodology for telemedicine services. It uses AI to assist non-ophthalmologists in their diagnosis and solve the problem of uneven distribution when lack of ophthalmologists. By identifying DR stages and lesions, this innovation improves diabetes health monitoring and management and helps to lower the risks of vision loss or blindness caused by DR. This honor is very precious because it creates added value of medical services through the integration of AI software and hardware device.

MiiS is devoted to promoting digital health to mitigate the problems of insufficient medical resources in rural areas, and long-distance medical treatment for elderly and disabled people. MiiS is one of the pioneers to realize "Zero-Distance Healthcare" with AI technology.
