RANCANG BANGUN OTOSKOP DIGITAL BERBASIS QT CREATOR
Abstract
Otoscope is a supporting tool for the diagnosis of disorder that occurs in the ear. In general, the otoscope uses the observer's eye sharpness to diagnose the disturbance in the patient's ear, so it is very likely that there will be a misdiagnosis by an ENT doctor, to minimize the possibility of errors, the author designed a digital otoscope by modifying the otoscope with a camera. This digital otoscope is expected to be able to display the results of images observed on LCD. Observers can take pictures of the tympanic membrane using a digital otoscope and display it on LCD for facilitate the process of observation and diagnosis of disorders that exist in the patient's ear. The author used a raspberry pi camera for capture images and Raspberry Pi as controller the camera and LCD. The testing method of this tool is to compare these devices with analog otoscope.
