This is beautiful. As a developer this is the kind of app I would like to work on, that has a direct good impact on people&#x27;s life.<p>I know there are all kinds of lists on github.<p>Is there a list of companies that are inherently good (I know it&#x27;s subjective) and are hiring developers?

Goodbye to India&#x27;s hopes to control ultrasound scanning of pregnant women to prevent gender selection. :(

I am glad people are using butterfly in remote areas rather than just <i>in hospitals</i> where they already have the ultrasound tech.

A lot of such tech is just expensive .. because it is since ever and customer pay the price.

This is the kind of investment in technology I think Bill &amp; Melinda Gates should be remembered by, as well as their investment in vaccines and contraception. Great stuff ( and well done to the inventor)

Fun fact - Tim O&#x27;Reilly tweeted that this tool came about from a discussion at one of his FOO Camps.

I don&#x27;t understand why this ultrasound scanner needs a user license except for exploitative reasons. It&#x27;s what crooks would do.

Only works with Apple products? That&#x27;s rather out of touch.

It has nothing to do with the phone or the software it&#x27;s the device, which if you could get down to a hundred $ or so it could be used by farmers of livestock.<p>This could be a revolution, but the Ultrasound Scanners need to be in the hands of low income farmers then imagine how quickly the dam ecosystem would develop across to humans.<p>I&#x27;ve been looking to get a cheap one from China, but you can&#x27;t, I&#x27;m not sure why, but perhaps it needs a certain chip that is not made cheaply yet. There are DIY&#x27;s around but seem immature.<p>If you want to change the world, get the price down for use on animals.<p>This is a good first step, but while the medical community is in change it&#x27;ll move at a snail pace which means a lot of people will die.

First time that I see that something can be connected to an IPhone. I wonder if you need special privileges from Apple, or there is an API available that can do some data (serial ?) transfer.
