The
choice of topics ranged from fabricating electrospun chitosan polymer membranes
for filtration applications to remote operated submersible for water quality
testing and finally to human assist-devices for disabilities or rehabilitation.
Our group chose to pick the topic of human assist devices with the
concentration on developing a product to help control hand tremors. The range
of all of our majors brings a lot to the table, allowing us to think up designs
for the project with someone majoring in biomedical engineering, a related
field on developing replicated body parts, mechanical engineering to help put
the assembly together for the prototype, all the way to computer engineering,
to help sketch and produce a three dimensional model of the design using
Pro-Engineer WildFire. Our initial goal for this project is to research upon
this topic of hand tremors and develop a basic solution, to help resolve this
issue. Once that is completed, we will go on to building a prototype and
testing it and modifying its design, allowing the solution to be as much user
friendly as possible.
