AI for doctors
The wild card in Acer’s announcements came from its healthcare arm, Acer Medical. It unveiled aiMed, a generative AI tool that turns doctors’ notes into structured medical records.

Alongside this, Acer’s VeriSee platform (used in over 500 clinics) is expanding AI screening for diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration. It’s a rare moment when a consumer tech brand steps meaningfully into healthcare, and it could be one of Acer’s most impactful moves.
