Access to STEM education can be limited in remote communities, reducing opportunities for hands-on learning. This project addresses that challenge by supporting the Firewheel STEM Institute through the development of a portable 3D viewer. The device is designed to teach concepts such as stereoscopic vision in mobile classroom settings. It can be used alongside outreach…

Access to training equipment for mobility assessments can be limited for individuals preparing to qualify for powered wheelchairs. This project addresses that challenge by developing a device that converts a manual wheelchair into an electric system. The design provides a consistent platform for students to practice required assessments. The goal is to support skill development,…

Providing reliable neonatal care in resource-limited settings can be challenging due to cost and infrastructure constraints. This project addresses that challenge by developing a low-cost neonatal incubator designed for use in rural Ghana. The system maintains a stable thermal environment through controlled airflow and monitoring of temperature and humidity, with battery backup for power interruptions….

This project focuses on designing an electrically powered platform for ACCEL, a nonprofit serving individuals with developmental disabilities, to train students on powered wheelchair use. The goal is to increase students’ chances of qualifying for a powered wheelchair for insurance approval. Sponsor ACCEL

This project aims to engage students in rural Ghana with STEM subjects through robotics kits. Identified by Douglas Ayitey, CEO and Founder of The MakersPlace, the project addresses the lack of interest in STEM due to limited access to resources. This initiative supports Ayitey in creating simple yet effective robotics kits to inspire rural students…

This project looks to develop a low-cost, modular neonatal incubator to help reduce infant mortality among premature and low birth-weight babies in Ghana. Built using locally available materials, the incubator is designed to be affordable, easy to maintain, and powered by a dynamic power system. This solution aims to improve access to essential neonatal care…
