A concept note on SIOBTM functionality
SILENT OBSERVERTM – AN INNOVATION OF SUKRUT SYSTEMS
Preface
This concept note briefly mentions about Silent ObserverTM (SIOBTM ) device and its working methodology.
Background
The gender composition in India has worsened over a period of time. Demographically the
ratio has increased from 927 females per 1000 males to 933 from census of 1991 to 2001,
however this ratio is alarmingly decreasing among children in the age group of 0-6. If it
continues, it’s going to further deepen the gender imbalance in the society.
Sex determination of a foetus is possible only with the Sonography machine. Hence the focus is
to have a monitoring solution for sonography centres performing pregnancy tests using
sonography machines. As per The PC & PNDT Act, it is mandatory for Sonography centers to
keep the details of each and every sonography of pregnant women in prescribed formats such
as form F etc.
SIOBTM
Under-reporting or false reporting of the cases is one of the main threats to the PC and PNDT
Act. There may be cases where it is possible not to report a test in regular records or on online
reporting system. SIOBTM is a device that offers a solution for the problem. It is an embedded
device that is connected to the video port, in between the sonography machine and the
monitor through the video port. SIOBTM captures the videographic information of F-form to
complement the F-form as described in PNDT Act.
How it works
The device offers a ready to use solution to capture video output or stream
from the machines with video output like a variety of computerized
equipment, including PCs, servers, projectors, radars, medical equipment,
scientific equipment, ATMs, and more. Once the video signal is captured, one
can broadcast it over the web or archive it for later viewing. The main
advantage of having a video capture solution over “screencasting” or screen
recording is that no software must be installed on the source machine, and the
