Medical industry is struggling in finding the cure for many types of disease especially cancer. It is known that white blood cell is used to protect the body against bacteria and diseases. Nowadays, many ways in separating white blood cells in human body were introduced for example; centrifugation. In this report, the author is using a new approach in separating the white blood cells to help with the immune system of human body. The new approach used in separating it by using image classification algorithm to separate the white blood cells from the blood capillaries and it will be done live from a video. By separating the white blood cells, we can study the behaviour of the immune system since white blood cells is responsible for immune system in human body.
