dc.description | ME450 Capstone Design and Manufacturing Experience: Fall 2020 | |
dc.description.abstract | Developed respiratory protection for frontline medical workers in low resource areas facing N95 shortages, specifically Ghana. Ghana is unable to manufacture N95 masks, and they are currently being imported. To navigate this issue, our team worked with local stakeholders including the Ghana Society of Biomedical Engineers. Our team designed a solution that effectively filters COVID-19 particles using local materials at an affordable price. The report includes the team's final design solution of a cloth mask with an inserted N95 filter. | |
