Abstract
The fluorescence sensing method is widely used in biochemical sensing. With the development of hardware structures and software systems in smartphones, this method has gradually evolved from large laboratory equipment to smartphones. However, current methods mainly rely on single signal processing and provide few detection schemes, requiring greater flexibility and efficiency. To overcome these challenges, a new smartphone platform is proposed for signal processing in fluorescence biosensing experiments. The platform supports multisignal parallel processing and precise target localization by integrating multiple image preprocessing algorithms and a Hough transform-assisted grayscale distribution algorithm. In addition, the platform provides multiple methods for sampling and concentration curve fitting, ensuring the flexibility and verifiability of experimental design. The experimental results demonstrate that the localization algorithm achieves a hit rate of 99.48%, with an average deviation distance of only 3.595 pixels. The minimum mean square error (mse) between the average pixel value of the target signal area calculated by the platform and the actual pixel value is only 3.158, and the minimum mean absolute error (MAE) is only 1.360. Validation experiments further confirm that the sensitivity and accuracy of the platform meet the basic requirements for fluorescence sensing detection. This platform has broad applicability in biomedical engineering and point-of-care testing (POCT), improving portable diagnostic tools and paving the way for home biochemical sensing applications, such as early cancer screening and cardiovascular disease prevention.
