Our ophthalmic imaging systems

MOVU’s powerful combination of advanced photonics technology and Multi-Modal Deep Learning helps leading eye care experts diagnose eye diseases and disorders earlier.

ARGONAUT

ARGONAUT® makes true whole-eye imaging a reality. Using the world’s first implementation of tunable VCSEL based Swept Source OCT system, ARGONAUT® integrates seven main modalities.

For the first time in history, a single sequence measures:

  • Biometry
  • Keratometry
  • Topography
  • Anterior segment
  • Fundus imaging
  • Retinal OCT
  • OCT angiography

Once the data is captured, ARGONAUT®'s Multi-Modal Deep Learning algorithm consolidates the data/images into accurate diagnostic information.

ARGONAUT® is not yet FDA cleared to market.

MOVU - ARGONAUTS
Proprietary Technology:
Tunable VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser)

Unprecedented speed and flexibility. Co-developed by Tokyo Institute of Technology, tunable VCSEL enables imaging modality transformation in one device. Vertical integration from optical components enhances reliability and performance.

How it Works

Best-in-class performance. Patented two-aperture design ensures best-in-class performance for all seven modalities. All measurements are done in a single sequence.

Multi-Modal Deep Learning
Make diagnoses from multiple images. AI/deep learning improves image processing and enables classification of issues using multiple images.
Simple UI and Comprehensive Reporting
Creating better care plans. Streamlined workflow and comprehensive multi-facet report helps coordinate better care plans. User-interfaces also empowers the virtual care setting between exam room and remote clinician.

FAQ

VCSEL is the special laser emitting light from the chip surface contrary to those emitting light from the edge of the diode. We integrate VCSEL with MEMS (Micro-Electro Mechanical System) to make it a wavelength-tunable/swept operation. The device is the heart of ARGONAUT® enabling long imaging range and adjustability for multi-modal imaging with just one laser.

Multi-Modal Deep Learning is an advanced algorithm that processes multiple modals as well as parameters, data from different imaging modalities. Diagnostic information can be linked between different symptoms and signs in different data and images. Beyond diagnosing a single disease, this provides more useful, accurate health conditions and diagnosis for early care management. ARGONAUT uses Multi-Modal Deep Learning to become a single source of big data for early diagnosis as well as the ultimate tool for developing a new interdisciplinary research field.

While tunable VCSEL supports multiple-imaging modalities by switching the speed and range, state-of-the-art optical systems are carefully designed to provide best image quality for each modality sharing a single tunable VCSEL. A smooth transition supports easy measurements and a seamless workflow for both patients and users.
