On June 18, famous for its AI image generationMidjourney<\/a>A surprise launch event was held in San Francisco - CEO David Holz officially launchedMidjourney<\/a> Scanner<\/strong>, an ultrasound device that can complete a full-body 3D scan in 60 seconds. This means that this \u201cAI painting company\u201d has officially crossed over into the medical and health field and established a new sub-brand.Midjourney<\/a> Medical\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From AI images to medical hardware: the most unexpected crossover<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Midjourney<\/a>Since its launch in 2022, it has been deeply involved in the field of AI image generation, andStable Diffusion<\/a>, DALL\u00b7E are also known as the three major AI drawing tools. Who would have thought that this company's first hardware product was not a professional drawing tablet, but aWhole body ultrasound scanner<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Bloomberg, Holz claimed at the press conference that \"no one has ever built a device like this before\" and emphasized that the technology is superior to traditional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in multiple dimensions.Midjourney<\/a> Scanner uses an underwater ultrasonic sensor array - the user enters a shallow pool and passes through a ring of ultrasonic sensors, approximately60 seconds<\/strong>You can obtain full-body 3D images with sub-millimeter accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Core technology: 500,000 miniature ultrasonic sensors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Different from the strong magnetic field and radiation risks of traditional MRI,Midjourney<\/a> Scanner adoptsRadiation-free ultrasound technology<\/strong>. About 500,000 micro-ultrasound sensors are integrated inside the device, which conducts ultrasonic waves through the underwater medium to generate a complete 3D model of the inside of the human body. This technical route can theoretically achieve an experience similar to \"walk-in CT\" while completely avoiding ionizing radiation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For users, this means that the physical examination may change from the long process of \"making an appointment - queuing - taking a photo - waiting for the report\" to a convenient experience of \"walking in - standing for a minute - getting the results\". Of course, this is still just the prototype demonstration stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Business Roadmap: From Spa to 50,000 units worldwide<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Midjourney<\/a>The business plan is quite radical. The company announced that it willThe first \u201chealth spa\u201d will be opened in San Francisco in 2027<\/strong>, packaging the scanning experience into a high-end health management service. The longer term goals are:Deploy 50,000 scanners globally by 2031<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This number is quite astonishing in the medical device industry. For comparison, global annual shipments of MRI equipment are approximately 5,000 units, with a cumulative installed capacity of approximately 65,000 units.Midjourney<\/a>To reach a deployment scale close to the global MRI population within 5 years is a huge challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Challenges and Doubts: How far can AI companies\u2019 hardware dreams go?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The difficulty of cross-border medical hardware cannot be underestimated. first isregulatory barriers<\/strong>\u2014\u2014Medical equipment needs to pass strict certifications such as FDA (United States), CE (Europe), and NMPA (China), and the cycle is usually calculated in years. followed byTechnical verification<\/strong>\u2014\u2014Although ultrasound imaging performs well in areas such as pregnancy examinations, the clinical accuracy of whole-body deep tissue imaging still needs to be verified on a large scale. finallybusiness model<\/strong>\u2014\u2014Moving from a monthly subscription SaaS model to hardware manufacturing and health services requires completely different supply chain, after-sales and operational capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summary: A landmark event in the melting of the boundaries of AI companies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Midjourney<\/a>The medical crossover is essentially the same as OpenAI doing search and Google doing chip.AI company boundaries are disappearing<\/strong>Another example of. When an AI imaging tool company announces that it will make medical equipment, the \"moat\" of any industry may be redefined in the AI \u200b\u200bera. Is this a short-lived conceptual hype or a real breakthrough in AI+ medical care? The first spa in 2027 will give a preliminary answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
