  • Patent number: 11234597
    Abstract: The virtual stethoscope and otoscope includes a head having a hollow internal volume with a diaphragm on one side and an otoscope cone on the opposite side. The head is coupled to one end of the tube and a microphone is coupled to an opposite side of the tube. The microphone is coupled to a cable and connector which is attached to a patient computing device. The diaphragm is placed on the patient and the body vibrations produce sound waves which are detected by the microphone. The microphone converts the sound waves into electrical signals which are high/low pass filtered and amplified before being transmitted to the patient computing device which can then transmit the patient data to a medical professional computing device.

The microphone converts the sound waves into electrical signals which are amplified by the patient computing device and transmitted to a medical professional computing device. Alternatively, the otoscope can be positioned to view a portion of the patient. A camera converts the photo data into electrical signals which are transmitted from the patient computing device to the medical professional computing device.
