Best Prototype
I worked on a team of 5 to build Canary, a mock start-up prototype. We learned Arduino basics with Professor Siddharth Deliwala and interpreted business case studies with Professor Jeffrey Babin to build our device and frame it in the broader business world.
Canary detects carbon monoxide, LPG, butane, methane, natural gas, smoke, carbon dioxide, and other flammable gases. It provides general air quality analysis and detects microparticles to warn users of dangers like asbestos. The air quality data is displayed by an LCD screen with an LED to indicate the air rating. The data can also be viewed in more detail on mobile devices via Bluetooth low-energy connection.
