Proposed platform.

A) Biomedical data (e.g., images of thin blood smear samples) from individual light microscopes all around the world are transmitted to data centres where they are pre-processed and digitally distributed among gamers, which in turn diagnose and transmit their responses back. These individual results of the gamers are then fused toward a final diagnosis, the result of which is transmitted back to the point-of-care or the clinic/hospital. In the map above, orange-coloured regions show locations where risk of contraction of malaria still exists. B) Block diagram of the presented platform.
