Raw Description
Product | Automatic Retinal Image Analyzer (“ARIA”) | ARIA is an algorithm built on the cloud internet platform that is fast and easy to use: | Step 1 - Captured image | Operator can use a general fundus camera to capture the retinal images, which usually takes less than 5 minutes. | Step 2 - Upload Image | Personal computer is connected to the fundus camera for the captured images to be encrypted and transferred to ARIA for analysis and reporting. | Step 3 – Analysis | ARIA automatically analyze the uploaded image, which usually takes less than one minute to complete. | Step 4 – Report | Completed report will be sent back to the site within 3 minutes and stored in the main server so subjects or other authorized persons can access anytime anywhere. | Uniqueness and Competitive Advantages: | 1. Fully automatic | 2. No need to use specialist | 3. Non-invasive | 4. No radiation | 5. No side effect | 6. Fast | 7. Accurate | 8. Can be done as frequently as one likes | 9. Convenient || Health View Bioanalytic Limited (“HVB”) is a start-up that put state-of-the-art research into reality by accurately assessing the risk of stroke through a fundus photo in the fastest and convenience manner. | Developed through cutting-edge researches from the CUHK, the Automatic Retinal Image Analysis (“ARIA”) system provides stroke risk assessment for patients not limited to high risk patients with diabetes, heart disease or hypertension. | ARIA analyzes the retinal blood vessels to infer vital information regarding cardiovascular health with great confidence. As a Cloud-based platform, ARIA can also cater for all users on providence of fundus photos regardless their location at any time.

Strategic Analysis

Executive Brief

Health View Bioanalytic Limited (HVB) is a medical technology company specializing in AI-driven diagnostic software. Their flagship product, ARIA (Automatic Retinal Image Analyzer), utilizes cloud-based algorithms to analyze retinal vasculature from fundus images to assess stroke and cardiovascular risk. HVB operates at the intersection of medical imaging, cloud computing, and preventative telehealth.

Strategic Fit & Lead Score

Lead Score: 48/100 (General Engineering & Hardware Optimization)

Why this Score? HVB is primarily a software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider; however, their "Step 1" depends entirely on the hardware quality of fundus cameras. 6C’s value lies in optimizing the hardware lifecycle and performance of the imaging systems they deploy or recommend. As HVB scales toward portable or "Point-of-Care" hardware, diamond’s thermal and optical properties become critical for miniaturization and image clarity.

6C Solutions Proposal

Application Area 6C Solution Technical Value Prop
Optical Clarity & Durability SCD/PCD Optical Windows Diamond has the widest spectral transparency and the highest hardness (10 Mohs). Replacing glass windows in fundus cameras prevents micro-scratches and maintains 100% signal-to-noise ratio over the device's life.
Edge AI Thermal Management PCD Heat Spreaders If ARIA moves from Cloud to "Edge" (processing inside a handheld camera), thermal throttling of AI chips is a bottleneck. PCD heat spreaders (>2000 W/mK) allow for high-performance computing in fanless, sealed medical housings.
Anti-Fogging & Bio-Inertia Nanodiamond/DLC Coating Direct diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating on lens exteriors provides a hydrophobic, bio-inert surface that resists protein build-up and fogging during patient examinations.
Next-Gen Micro-Sensing NV-Center SCD Consulting Future versions of ARIA could move beyond visual imaging to magnetic sensing of blood flow. 6C can provide Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) Diamond for ultra-sensitive quantum magnetometry.

Engagement Hooks

  • Technical Question: "As you scale ARIA to more remote clinics, have you encountered limitations in image consistency due to the degradation of low-cost fundus camera optics or thermal instability during high-frequency use?"
  • Value Statement: "6C can help Health View Bioanalytic transition from a cloud-dependent software to a high-performance, 'diamond-inside' portable diagnostic hardware platform that offers superior image resolution and thermal reliability."
