TRINAMIC的步进电机控制模块可以帮助对抗疟疾
疟疾是世界上最致命的传染病。常见的热带地区的亚洲,非洲和南美洲,治疗疟疾是有效的,如果早期诊断。标准的疟疾测试需要通过一个训练有素的技术人员在显微镜下对血液样本进行目视检查,以确认疟疾寄生虫的存在、数量和类型。仅在印度每年就进行超过1亿7500万次疟疾测试。
Sight Diagnostics, an Israeli start-up, developed a unique diagnostic technology that offers significant improvement over human microscopy for malaria detection. Using patent-pending image processing and advanced algorithms, Sight Diagnostic’s Parasight Platform™ identifies, enumerates and characterizes malaria-suspect blood samples faster, and more consistently, than a human technician.
Sight Diagnostics turned to stepper motor specialist Trinamic Motor Control as a key supplier for its Parasight Platform. An autonomous diagnostic system the size of a coffee maker, the Parasight Platform accepts thirty individual blood samples in a loading tray, examining each sample under a digital imaging lens.
The current Parasight Platform design uses four stepper motors:
Two stepper motors move the sample slide through a predetermined X/Y search grid to complete a thorough assay of the blood sample under test.
A third stepper motor controls the Z-axis image focus mechanism.
The fourth stepper motor manages the feed conveyor for the multi-sample load tray.
