Abbe Labs engineers AI-powered Fourier Ptychographic Microscopy (FPM) systems. We replace $50,000 legacy scanners with $1,000 edge-compute diagnostic rigs to automate the detection of Malaria, NTDs, and Cervical Cancer in decentralized clinics.
Legacy optical microscopes are fragile, expensive, and require chemical staining. We are bypassing the 800,000 missing lab professionals in emerging markets by building a highly scalable, automated hardware-as-a-service infrastructure.
Emerging markets cannot train their way out of this bottleneck. Technicians are overwhelmed by daily manual smear reads. Hardware alone cannot solve this; autonomous edge-AI analysis is mandatory.
By utilizing computational physics (FPM), we strip out expensive high-magnification lenses and mechanical motors. This drops the COGS from a $50,000 traditional WSI scanner to a hyper-scalable $1,000 chassis.
The hardware acts as a CapEx deployment vehicle. Our core revenue is generated through a high-margin, pay-per-test recurring software model, capturing value directly at the decentralized edge.
Our proprietary rig flashes programmable LED matrices from multiple angles. We use computational phase-retrieval algorithms to reconstruct high-resolution, wide-field cellular data without chemical stains.
Powered by NVIDIA Jetson modules, our machine learning models run 100% locally. We automate the analysis of blood smears and cytology slides instantly, completely removing the reliance on unstable cloud infrastructure.
Transitioning from prototype to ISO 13485 medical device. We are actively executing clinical pilots in Lagos, Nigeria, establishing the regulatory framework (CE-IVDR/FDA) for commercial launch.
A multidisciplinary leadership team bridging the gap between advanced systems engineering, clinical microbiology, and commercial execution.
Founder, CEO & CTO
Lead Optical & AI Architect. An Artificial Intelligence researcher and Systems Engineer with a PhD from Delft University of Technology. Endorsed by UKRI via the Global Talent route, Prosper authored the foundational FPM research driving Abbe Labs.
He brings over a decade of experience in computer vision and automated medical image processing. He previously designed and successfully field-validated the "Schistoscope"—an automated AI diagnostic microscope for parasite detection in West Africa.
