Wearable device

I worked on a wearable device that straps onto your wrist and measures reaction time. One application for this device is to monitor cognitive decline. This is because out of all neuropsychological tests, reaction time is the most sensitive to dementia.

Motion sensing inflatable hip protector

The elderly are vulnerable to falls. These accidents often can break their hips and the resulting hospital stays can lead to complications, such as infections and death. In fact, falls are responsible for 70% of accidental deaths in people 75 and older. To prevent this, I worked on a project to build an inflatable hip protector.
