Hyderabadi Connection to The Fastest COVID-19 Detection Kit

The scarcity of the Testing Kits has become a big detriment to the war against the Coronavirus. Two Indian-Americans claimed to have come up with a solution to this problem. They developed an AI-powered advanced diagnostic system that will help in quick detection of COVID-19.

Hyderabad’s Srikanth Kodeboyina and Chennai’s Barath Narayanan developed software that searches for markings on X-rays which will indicate the presence of COVID-9. They claim that the system will identify the virus in 20 seconds and with 96% accuracy.

They have applied for FDA approval. Srikanth is president and CEO of Blue Eye Soft, a Greenville SC based IT software solutions company, while Barath is a research scientist at the University of Dayton Research Institute and Adjunct faculty at the University of Dayton.
