CAPTURING USER CONSTRUCTED MAP OF BODILY REGION OF INTEREST FOR REMOTE TELEMEDICINE NAVIGATION

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method for capturing a user constructed map of bodily region of interest for remote telemedicine navigation includes receiving, by a user-device, a request for capturing data for constructing a model of the bodily region using a designated capture-device. The method further includes generating, by the user-device, a visual feedback for capturing the data. Generating the visual feedback includes displaying a representation of the bodily region, and modulating, in response to the capture-device scanning the bodily region, the representation with a first indicator that indicates a duration to maintain a position of the capture-device. Generating the visual feedback includes further modulating, in response to completion of scanning the bodily region, the representation with a second indicator that indicates completion of the scan. The method further includes constructing, by the user-device, the model of the bodily region using data that is acquired by the capture-device by scanning the bodily region.
