More Star Trek Technology Becoming Reality

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)
As if we need even more proof that the technology we first saw in the original Star Trek series is now becoming reality, there this: a hand-held medical scanner.

Can anyone say "medical tricorder"? Sure you can.

It looks like a cross between a flip-top phone and the medical scanner used by Dr McCoy in the TV series Star Trek.

The Vscan is not science fiction but a hand-held ultrasound machine with a scanning wand attached, which has been approved for use in Europe and North America.

It's getting closer all the time.
