The MakersPlace

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…

The Neonatal Incubator for Ghana project develops an affordable and culturally appropriate incubator to improve the survival rates of premature infants in Ghana. The design integrates sensors for humidity, temperature, tilt and carbon dioxide to maintain a stable, healthy environment and monitor infant well-being. Sponsor The MakersPlace

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….
