Description
SED Technology LLC is proposing an existing concept of determining burn area and depth based on extensive previous work involving infrared technology. The proposed concept involves the use of all capabilities associated with 2D and 3D Infrared that have been developed by Dr. Francine Prokoski in the areas of Biometrics, Forensics and Health Care applications. The concept could eventually provide a non-contact capability of medical personnel to images of burns and use those images to determine both area and depth. These images could be taken over time to determine the extent of the burn depth after hours or days and be able to accurately align subsequent images to the original images. To accomplish this SBIR Phase I, Dr. Prokoski will serve as the principal investigator and be assisted by a medical imaging expert and system engineer, medical burn consultants from the Washington Hospital Burn Center and other SED personnel as needed.
