Autonomous Bilevel Ventilator
Project Area of Specialization Mechatronics EngineeringProject SummaryThis project proposes a very simple prototype which is able to replace an actual ventilator "for full-term and pre-term neonates".Neonates often struggle to breathe at the time of their birth.We have applied principles of mechatronics to propose an autonomous yet affordable ventilator design that will target hospitals of village areas specifically and work with least human involvement.
Project ObjectivesTo design an affordable,simple and requiring least human interaction design ventilator that specifically targets urban hospitals that cannot afford mechanical ventillator.
Project Implementation MethodDesigning of Pneumatic System,Interfacing with microcontroller and pressure sensors followed by manufacturing and testing of prototype.
Benefits of the ProjectCompact Design
Affordable(less than 200$)
Autonomous(requiring least human involvement)
