Japanese researchers develop AI that detects rare diseases from hand photos

Researchers at Kobe University in Japan have created an artificial intelligence (AI) system that can detect acromegaly, a rare hormonal disorder, using only photos of the back of a person’s hand and a clenched fist. By avoiding facial images, the system protects patient privacy while maintaining a high level of diagnostic accuracy. Acromegaly is a

AI basketball trainer with smart precision and vision to elevate your game

Traditional basketball shooting machines launch balls at different angles to simulate game situations. However, these systems often rely on pre-programmed patterns, training mechanics rather than real-time decision-making. Their limited computer vision also struggles to adapt to real-world environments, such as changing outdoor lighting or the varying ceiling heights found in different indoor gyms. AI-Powered Performance

Meta unveils AI capable of translating brain activity into text

Scientists at Meta have developed Brain2Qwerty v2, a system that can convert brain activity into text without requiring brain implants or surgery. Instead, it relies on a non-invasive helmet-like device that detects the brain’s magnetic signals as a person thinks about typing. The technology uses magnetoencephalography (MEG), a brain imaging technique that records magnetic fields
