Did you know the word “Tricorder” comes from Star Trek?
In the famous TV series a Tricorder is an all-in-one smartphone type product, rigged with sensors and recorders. These devices are used to “see the invisible”, or at least measure things the human eye can’t see. And there are different kinds of tricorders – the one Scanadu is referring to is the Medical Tricorder.
What does the Scout do?
As described by Scanadu, the Scout is “a medical grade Tricorder using your smartphone and Bluetooth LE to emulate an Emergency Room in your pocket”.
