Sydney-based dental and medical imaging startup Eyes of AI is on its way to the Australian Information Industry Association’s (AIIA) National iAwards ceremony, after taking home the NSW iAward for the best Business and Industry Solution.
AIIA’s NSW state awards ceremony was held at the Sydney Hilton on Thursday 27 July where Eyes of AI (EAI) was also awarded Merit Winner for the Technology Platform Solution iAward.
EAI shares both wins with CSIRO Data61, in recognition of the AI-based segmentation and detection of pathologies technology that the two organisations developed in collaboration with each other.
The purpose-built, cloud-based platform uses AI-technology to provide automated identification of anatomical structures and pathological lesions.
It’s the first of its kind to offer a unified solution for conducting AI-based analysis on all five commonly used types of dental radiographs. Currently, no other commercial product offers a comparable solution.
Khoa Le, Co-founder of EAI said the team is honoured to receive the award from Australia’s peak representative body and advocacy group for those in the digital ecosystem.
We are particularly pleased that AIIA recognises the potential of our technology to create a positive impact – which was one of the key judging criteria.
~Mr. Le
“That we could be close to launching a world first here in Australia with this technology is not only exciting for us at Eyes of AI but showcases Australia’s advanced capabilities in the tech and medtech fields.”
“It also demonstrates the high-level research and development resources that we have access to in this country.”
Dr. Sen Le, Co-founder of EAI, thanked all iAwards sponsors on behalf of the EAI team including national awards partner, Department of Industry, Science and Resources; and sponsor of the Business and Industry Solution iAward, SRA Information Technology.
EAI and CSIRO Data61 will now go on to represent NSW at the AIIA’s National iAwards Ceremony on Thursday, 31 August at SkyCity Adelaide.
