Does any one know if a photo camera exist which talks FHIR?
We want for dermatology a camera that talk FHIR, so we can send patient data to it and receive the pictures with the patient data.

That's an App for a smart phone, not really a camera

We don't want to use a smartphone, because of GDPR. The quality of the macro photo's must be guarantied. A smartphone has maybe a good camera, but a real camera is still better. We also heared from a physician that some manufacturer was busy with it.

Assuming there is a (long'ish) explanation behind "no smartphone because of GDPR"...

Do you want to see if there is one in the format or you want to develop one? If you want to develop one, a camera could talk any raw or lossless compression format with a gateway (via wi-fi or bluetooth), and that gateway can handle the FHIR stuff. I don't know how easy it ould be to embed FHIR in the firmware....

btw, if the camera talks FHIR and gets patient data, it will have to deal with GDPR too.
