We have been working together at the New Venture Institue for a few years, initially developing phone apps for Education. It became abundantly clear to us that ever-increasing sensor, computational connectivity capabilities of the mobile phone are being unappreciated and underutilised in education; where old world equipment dictates work practices. We set out to change this. But failed, except with phone microscopy - that evolved into GoMicro.
By combining our skills in engineering, product design and software development we have realized some exciting possibilities. It has taken us into new areas where we have found collaborators whom we enjoy working with, opening new doors and new possibilities that we now believe can transform industries.

Where we are heading
GoMicro originated as 60x @ the Australian Science and Mathematics School where the clip on microscopes where first used for educational purposes. We have now gone a long way from where we started. We are leading the change that will help redefine microscopy.
Microscopy 4.0 : Cloud connected mobile phone microscopy for instantaneous AI-based analysis
Technology developed at Flinders University is revolutionising the treatment of skin diseases across the world's many war zones. It is a cheap and sturdy 3D-printed microscope kit - attached to a smart phone or tablet. www.7plus.com.au/news #Flinders #7News
