Researchers from University of Guadalajara Provide Details of New Studies and Findings in the Area of Electronics (Improvement In the Digital Acquisition of the Pupillary Response To Controlled Stimulation By Means of Computational Tools and...).

Researchers from the University of Guadalajara in Mexico have developed a low-cost pupillometer, a device that measures the response of the pupil to LED flash stimuli. This non-invasive technique can be used to analyze the photomotor reflex and diagnose mental, ocular, and other health conditions. The researchers implemented an experimental prototype that includes a web camera and a lighting system to capture pupillary images and induce stimuli. They also developed a robust algorithm to estimate pupil diameters and analyze pupillary behavior. This research provides a new tool for medical diagnosis and expands access to specialized equipment.
