In addition, Skeeper is also being used for non-face-to-face remote medical treatment. In an isolation ward in a hospital dedicated to COVID-19, the doctor in charge outside the isolation ward diagnoses the results of auscultation through real-time auscultation sound monitoring, and stores auscultation sound data for each patient to check symptom changes and manage history. There are examples. Based on these cases, it can also be used as a standardized non-face-to-face solution in preparation for POST infectious disease treatment.

Smartsound developed and succeeded in developing an artificial intelligence (AI) solution for the first time in Korea to determine cardiopulmonary diseases with a smart stethoscope.
