Horror dashcam vid shows boy on bicycle get crushed between two cars in freak road crash
James Halpin Published: Invalid Date, HORROR dashcam video shows a boy riding a bicycle being crushed between two cars in a freak road crash. The lad is squished between a blue Nissan Micra and a parked white car in a perilous moment that puts the boy's life in danger. 5 5 5 The Micra hits the boy after it was itself hit by a white car turning - causing the Nissan to skid and swerve and crush the boy in horror timing. The driver gets out of the car and sprints to the front of her motor and check the cyclist is okay. She then quickly gets back into the car and reverses, moving her car back from the crushed lad. Passersby also rush to help with one being heard saying: "Oh dear, the kid is gone, she hit the kid." But after the driver reversed, the boy was pulled out. Miraculously, the cyclist only suffered some light bruising and was taking to hospital for a checkup. The shock moment is recorded by the dashcam of another car which is waiting to turn into the street where the smash happens. The horror crash took place in Korfez, in Kocaeli Province, Turkey, at around 1.30pm on July 5. It comes after a popular influencer died in a horror smash alongside the her driver after their car smashed into lorry parked in the hard shoulder. Gizem Ozmen, 24, known for supporting women struggling with trauma, was tragically killed alongside her driver, named as Mehmet Ensar Ozden. According to reports, the pair were driving along in a Volkswagen when it careered into a tanker that had stopped in the emergency lane. Police, ambulance and fire crews all rushed to the scene, but could do nothing to save the pair. A European beauty queen was also killed earlier this year after tragically plunging from a bridge onto a motorway while fleeing from police. Güler Erdogan, 27, was caught drunk behind the wheel in Giresun, Turkey, and fell 50ft from the bridge as she tried to flee from cops on April 1. The "Miss Europe-Kosovo" title holder had been on a night out in her hometown to celebrate Eid with her family, and later hit a nightclub with friends. She allegedly tried to drive home while drunk, but ran into police at a checkpoint, according to CNN Turkey. 5 5 Topics Turkey

AI-Driven Scalp Analysis Robot by Dr. Koray Erdogan Could Be Next Breakthrough in Hair Transplant Diagnostics, Backed by U.S. Patent
ASMED Medical Center's KE-BOT, developed by Dr. Koray Erdogan, uses artificial intelligence to deliver objective, high-resolution scalp analysis-now validated by a United States patent. Istanbul, Turkey--(Newsfile Corp. - May 20, 2025) - ASMED Medical Center announced that its proprietary AI-powered robotic diagnostic system, KE-BOT, developed by Dr. Koray Erdoğan, has been granted a patent by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). This recognition highlights the role of advanced imaging and artificial intelligence in enhancing diagnostic precision within aesthetic and procedural planning. [ This image cannot be displayed.

Developed over a nine-year R&D period in collaboration with Kocaeli University and TÜBİTAK, KE-BOT performs 360-degree scalp mapping, capturing high-resolution data on hair shaft thickness, follicular density, and distribution. The system produces consistent, reproducible metrics that inform procedural planning, with no dependence on manual measurement or subjective judgment. 'We built KE-BOT to bring standardization, objectivity, and data transparency into a field that has long relied on visual estimations,' said Dr. Koray Erdoğan, founder and medical director of ASMED. 'The U.S. patent is a milestone for us, and for the application of artificial intelligence in clinical diagnostics.' KE-BOT's AI engine processes detailed visual input and translates it into quantifiable values for clinicians. The robot assists in pre- and post-procedural analysis and is supported by KE-BOT Mobile, a digital application linked to ASMED's central data servers. This allows clinicians and patients to visualize mapped data and procedural metrics in real time. [ This image cannot be displayed.

By providing clinicians with patient-specific maps and metrics in minutes, KE-BOT not only improves accuracy but also accelerates the diagnostic phase, supporting faster planning and more efficient consultation processes. While Türkiye has become known globally for its role in the hair restoration industry, KE-BOT's U.S. patent adds a new dimension: the emergence of locally developed health-tech tools from the region with international scientific recognition. 'This is not just about innovation in robotics,' added Dr. Erdoğan. 'It's about building tools that raise global standards of precision, transparency, and planning through verified data.'
