MediScan

Description

In critical situations such as sudden illness or natural disasters, accessing a patient's medical history swiftly can be a matter of life and death. The MediScan project aims to revolutionize medical emergency response by providing instant access to a patient's medical history through facial recognition technology. By simply scanning a patient's face, doctors can access vital medical information, allergies, and previous treatments, enabling them to make informed decisions rapidly and administer appropriate treatment promptly.
