To reverse engineer, design and 3-D printing of ventilator parts.

Hand sanitizer is in high demand across the United States.

Medical face masks, such as N95 masks, are in short supply and are currently being sterilized and reused. Commonly used sterilization treatments have the potential to degrade material properties, which can lead to a decrease in efficacy. One weak point of the mask is the elastomeric strap, which upon degradation can lead to a worsened fit and poor filtration properties.

Create a portable chamber for reliable ultraviolet (UV) disinfection, enabling safe reuse of personal protective equipment.

This project created a comfortable and long-wear protective mask for essential workers that allows for optimizable protection in various environments. The mask aims to alleviate uncomfortable, prolonged wear associated with effective masks through the use of adaptable features such as soft straps, valve flow adjustments, and fabric replacement.

Develop a wearable device for the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) caused by Covid-19 and pneumonia.

With an increasing number of United States health workers becoming infected with coronavirus, this project predicts that dual sterilization and storage can prevent and reduce cases of further infection among healthcare workers. Additionally, they propose the use of ultraviolet germicidal irradiation will provide three to four log reduction of germ presence on N95 masks.

To create low-cost gowns that can be manufactured quickly with improvements to known vulnerable points on isolation gowns, such as the wrist area.

To perform a literature review and testing of personal protective equipment (PPE), mainly N95 masks, to determine the best method for safely decontaminating PPE.

• Create an effective N95 respirator solution that not only provides superior protection to the user but more efficiently utilizes the low-supply textiles.
• Boost manufacturing and supply lines for the common N95 textiles and source new filter media that may meet the filtration and standards requirements.
• Identify decontamination methods for in-circulation masks to be us
