US Department of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency studies black technology: detecting whether a soldier is sick through a mobile phone

In most countries, the military is a fairly large group, and the health status of the soldiers is especially important for the combat effectiveness of the army. The US Department of Defense's Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) recently signed a $5.1 million contract with network security company Kryptowire to develop a "black technology": through a smartphone, you can see if a soldier is sick.

Smartphone, smart medical

This program is called Warfighter analyTIcs using Smartphones for Health (WASH), which is the smartphone warrior health check. The program aims to use the various sensors (cameras, microphones, and even heart rate sensors, etc.) on the smartphone to detect if the user is abnormal. At the same time, the program is also looking for data entered by users. The user's health status is determined by analyzing the interaction between the user and the device and comparing it with the average benchmark.

This plan will help the Department of Defense detect whether a soldier is 100% in shape. Hopefully this will lead to early detection of everything from diabetes to post-traumatic stress disorder. The sooner you discover the disease, the better it will be for the patient.

However, the project also raised concerns. For example, if this technology is extended from military use to commercial use (not without precedent), it will cause serious privacy problems, especially technology-related privacy issues are extremely sensitive.

At present, the plan is still in its infancy, and its effect, whether it will give a medical application to the dark, remains to be seen.
