A crystal the size of a matchbox was placed under the beam of a clinical accelerator. Half of its surface was covered with a pattern of nanoscale bumps — tiny, smaller than the wavelength of light. The other half was left smooth. The difference was striking: the coated part produced a signal 4.1 times brighter.

Data on gene activity usually looks like a long string of numbers, like a rainbow stripe (spectrum) with no visible connections. In the scVision model, these numbers are turned into a meaningful picture — not a list of ingredients, but a photo of a finished dish.
