iSlide Input Device
Ventana’s iSlide is an input device that eases a pathologist’s transition from manual to digital pathology. The iSlide device gives pathologists a microscope-like viewing experience by allowing them to use their fine motor skills to view digital images. The iSlide will allow pathologists to use the motions of moving a glass slide with their fingers to navigate a digital image, and will allow them to use knobs to change focus and the magnification of the image they are viewing. The motions and ergonomics of the iSlide parallel those of a microscope, giving pathologists the same level of comfort they have while using a microscope. The iSlide also integrates a full-size QWERTY keyboard, wireless mouse, speakers, and a microphone into a unified device, reducing the clutter and space requirements on a pathologist’s desk.
