The tool is designed to be a low-cost, non-invasive, and accessible screening solution, particularly beneficial for resource-limited settings in rural India.

The tool utilizes Deep Learning and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to process and classify images of oral lesions for potential malignancy.

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) Bangalore developed an AI-powered tool that analyzes smartphone images to detect oral cancer at an early stage.

The EOS-08 carries the Electro Optical Infrared Payload (EOIR), Global Navigation Satellite System-Reflectometry (GNSS-R), and SiC UV Dosimeter.

EOS-08 is designed to demonstrate technologies required for microsatellites, including a new bus, integrated avionics, and modular payloads.

The EOS-08 satellite was launched by the Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV-D3) on August 16, 2024, marking the final developmental flight of the SSLV series.

A growing manufacturing sector typically leads to job creation, which in turn can help reduce the unemployment rate. It can also boost exports, potentially improving the current account balance.

The Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) for Manufacturing is a key economic indicator that provides a timely monthly estimate of the health of the manufacturing sector, based on surveys of purchasing managers.
