Do you know that the sound of your cough can tell whether you have any disease in your lungs or not? Yes, this is true. Scientists have developed such an amazing technology, which can tell whether you have a serious disease like tuberculosis or TB by listening to the sound of your cough.
Google scientists have played a big role in making this technology. They have created a machine that analyzes the sound of your cough by listening to it. This machine converts the sound of cough into a kind of picture and then by looking at that picture, it finds out whether you are sick or not.
How was this technology developed?
During the Corona epidemic, doctors observed that many times they could tell that the patient had corona just by listening to the sound of the patient's cough. Inspired by this, scientists developed this technology. They studied millions of cough sounds on YouTube and taught their machine which kind of cough indicates which disease.
Benefits of this technology
Disease is detected quickly: This technology will very quickly tell if you have any disease or not.
Cheap and easy: This technology does not require expensive equipment. You can also use it from your mobile phone.
Beneficial in remote areas: With the help of this technology, people living in remote areas will also be able to get better health facilities.
There is still some work left
However, this technology is still not fully developed. Scientists are still working on it and trying to make it better. But, this is a very promising technology and it can prove to be very beneficial for us in the future.
