CASSETTE ATTACHMENT DEVICE FOR DETECTING INTENSITY OF TEST STRIP CASSETTE
First Claim
1. A device for detecting intensity of bands on a test strip, comprising:
- a strip chamber configured to accommodate at least a portion of a test strip cassette;
a light source configured to provide constant illumination to the test strip cassette via indirect lighting;
an attaching mechanism configured to attach the device to a mobile device having a camera component; and
a camera window configured to transmit light signal reflected from the test strip cassette through the camera window to the camera component of the mobile device such that the mobile device can capture an image of the test strip cassette illuminated by the light source.

13. A method for detecting intensity of a test strip, comprising:
-
generating a first light by a light source of a cassette attachment device, the cassette attachment device being attached to a mobile device; guiding the first light to illuminate a test strip cassette inserted into the cassette attachment device; and transmitting a second light reflected or emitted from the test strip cassette through a camera window of the cassette attachment device, to reach a camera component of the mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
