Skin conditions such as eczema, acne, even skin cancer are a very prevalent health issue, occurring in people of all ages. In case of emergencies, it can be difficult to get appointments with a dermatologist – a professional who can help get the condition under control on a long-term basis.

Derma now is a technology that will help patients seek advice about and treat skin conditions quickly and easily.

The proposed solution is to develop an Android application that uses image processing technology as well as technological interfaces to help diagnose and treat skin complaints. The application works when the user takes a photo of the affected skin area, with the system detecting and analyzing the imagery to provide accurate analysis and give an initial diagnosis.

Results and functionalities depend on each individual user and case.

Our project is an innovative new way of animal sheltering, where the animals can roam freely and spend time socializing with humans. In Saudi Arabia there are very few animal shelters, and almost all of them are managed by groups of volunteers or independent vets. The animals are therefore usually sheltered in residential houses, which have limited capacity.

Overall our project is the first of its kind – combining a lounge with an animal shelter. There are similar concepts such as The Cat Café in Japan, however it is a completely different offering in the respect that a café is a place where you can spend a limited time doing limited activities and you would be expected to leave after you have finished your drink or meal. Café concepts such as this do not completely deal with the issue of animal homelessness, since the cats are more for entertainment purposes than to offer them a home.

According to our research, we will be the first to create such a space in Riyadh.

Contractor: The construction service provider and bidder in the program

Once the applicant submits a request, all contractors registered in the program will receive an alert to view the project submitted, check the maps and the required building data and submit a bid. The offer is then received by the client who can then decide which contractor they would like to work with and which bids to reject.

The objective of AGS is to collect, and analyse and dissect the human genome on behalf of customers who would like to learn about their genetic profile and whether they are genetic carriers for certain high-risk diseases.

AGS operations are divided into three main phases: Collection, analysis and dissection. The collection phase will be processed through two methods.

First, AGS would send a sample kit to the consumer with detailed direction on how to take a good sample of his/her saliva. Then, AGS would contract with a hospital or a clinic to conduct the test.

Secondly AGS would begin its analysis, which is the most sophisticated and interesting phase, where the AGS algorithm operates – the cornerstone of our project.

Lastly, the final part of the process is dissection, which is accomplished through a software called DISSECT. This software, developed in the US, allows users to configure and dissect large amounts of genetic data in a timely manner. AGS will then deliver the results on the profile page of the concerned party at AGS website/app, where they will be able to log in and access his/her genetic profile. Importantly, this profile will be updated every time a genetic research breakthrough occurs.

Based on the success of our project in acquiring the data needed for our own the genetic algorithm, the company will initiate its second stage, which is to incorporate algorithm-produced data and conduct genetic research that could lead to breakthroughs in the pharmaceutical industry.
