Project description:

The project is about the development of a corneal topography device that combines low cost and portability with precision and advanced technologies. To reduce the cost substantially we develop software tools to carry out tasks that are commonly carried out using expensive hardware components. The work involved is mathematical analysis and programming in Matlab and Python.
