OIO (or "OWL", because OIO looks like one) is an ultra low-cost, open hardware device to image the retina (also called imaging the fundus of the eye). Having the ability to image the retina easily and with low cost is invaluable in the early detection of potentially vision-threatening diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy.

Details about assembly and parts is given on our hackaday page. Our software is designed and tested on a raspberry PI v2B and 3B, with M12 mount rPI cameras (through DSI cable). The OS on the raspberry PI we use is Wheezy.
All dependencies can be installed by running install.sh, sudo password would be required if some dependencies are not present. We recommend installing the software on a fresh dedicated rPI.
The repository must be cloned into the 'home' folder of Raspberry Pi, i.e., /home/pi/ or just the ~ path, all environment variables are set with respect to this!
The name of the user should be pi (which is the default on new rPI OS installations).
The GUI is run as a fullscreen webapp served with Flask. Our system's backbone is Python. The folder structure is as follows (All individual folders have their own readme):
####Folder Structure
openDR
|---experimental_modules
|---images
|---static
|---templates
experimental_modules contains work in progress python modules.
images contains the images taken using the device. Images are stored in a folder named with the MR Number, and image names are of the format MR_no_i_j.jpg where i and j are integers. i indicates session no and j indicates pic number within that session.
static contains all static elements (css, fonts, images, javascript) for the webapp gui which is served.
templates contains all html for the webapp
fundus_mod3.py has the main functionality, and integrates the GUI and imaging. This code polls for a button press and captures two images in quick succession (illuminating by two separate LEDs controlled by GPIO). The images are processed and then saved.
name stores the image number of the image last clicked and stores on the device (temporary hack!)
Fundus_cam.py stores the class which allows for the creation of object controlling the Picamera.
simplehttp.sh creates a python simplehttp server on port 8000 to allow for transfer of files from the device.
