Purpose
The main objective of the Black Skin Dermatology Online project is to establish an experimental web platform of teledermatology on black skin, multilingual and open, integrating image and voice recognition technologies.
The first phase of the project consisted in developing a prototype and in building up a representative corpus of black skin dermatology in electronic format.
The second phase of the project consists, on the one hand, in developing the data communication services linked to the images database, and on the other hand, in performing the prototype evaluation.
