Description
Jerry Febrico and Basari build a body scanner for under a hundred dollars in a 2026 paper. Electrical impedance tomography maps the inside of a body by passing tiny currents across skin pads and reading how they spread. Shop-bought units cost a fortune and stay locked, so cheap wards go without.
Their open design pairs a common impedance chip with a standard controller board and a swap-friendly front end. Sixteen pads gather over two hundred readings in two seconds. In a salt water tank with steel and plastic targets, the rig placed shapes well and stayed precise. The plans are free for any lab to copy.
