Hardware Design of Skin Cancer Detection Device

Skin cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers worldwide. Early detection is crucial to improving the chances of recovery. In last few years, technology has made advancements in early cancer detection efforts. Technology-based cancer detection devices have been developed to diagnose cancer with precise accuracy. One important aspect of a skin cancer detection device is the hardware design. This research will focus on the development of hardware solutions and innovations to address the shortcomings of existing devices, thereby improving efficiency and ease of examination. In the initial of the design process, a 3D print design is created using software. Afterwards, the internal components such as a microcomputer, camera, UPS, battery and screen are integrated, connected using various cables. Then, the integrated components are combined with the 3D-printed body. Tests are conducted including battery endurance, measurements of the 3D-printed design, screen functionality testing and webcam camera testing for image capture. Based on the mentioned tests, the expected results are obtained, which can become an innovative design for a new skin cancer detection device that improves efficiency in conducting examinations.
