  • Patent number: 11804299
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a universal platform for at-home health testing and diagnostics are provided herein. In particular, a health testing and diagnostic platform is provided to connect medical providers with patients and to generate a unique, private testing environment. In some embodiments, the testing environment may facilitate administration of a medical test to a patient with the guidance of a proctor. In some embodiments, the patient may be provided with step-by-step instructions for test administration by the proctor within a testing environment. The platform may display unique, dynamic testing interfaces to the patient and proctor to ensure proper testing protocols and accurate test result verification.

  • Publication number: 20230121265
    Abstract: As one example of remote health testing or diagnostics using a personal device and remote image quality verification, a user may be prompted to take an image, for example, of a reference card, using a camera of his or her personal user device. The image of the reference card can be uploaded by the personal user device to a server on the cloud. The server can be configured to evaluate the image to determine whether the image is already of sufficient quality (for being used in medical diagnostics) or the image can be processed using designated processing techniques and parameters to produce a processed image of sufficient quality. Finally, the server can respond to the user device with an indication of the determination result.
