To enhance remote medical consultations using video conferencing, InfoDisp is developing cameras and special lighting systems for application areas such as dermatology and diabetes. InfoDisp has benefited from working in co-operation with organisations such as BT and The Centre for Health Informatics at The University of Wales, Aberystwyth.

	Hand-held camera & display
	Ring illuminator attached to the camera lens providing even and consistent light of a colour temperature optimised in consultation with dermatologists
	Camera base incorporating driver electronics
	Desk top power & interface unit complete with a 5 m cable for connection to the camera base
	Audio & video leads, together with adapter, for connection between the desk unit and the video-conferencing terminal

Telederm Camera

The arrangement illustrated has been used successfully on many dermatology trials. However, several alternative options are available taking account of higher resolution, but significantly more expensive, camera technology or the new generation of digital cameras.

Users of InfoDisp Telederm cameras include:

	Team Project CHI, University of Wales - Aberystwyth
	Taunton & Somerset NHS Trust
	Queen’s University, Belfast
	Exeter & District Community Health Care Trust
	Diabetes Centre, Ipswich
