GRAND CHALLENGE PROJECT

 

 

 

 

In light of the recent COVID-19 outbreak, our team voluntarily halted our PEP Catheter project to focus our efforts on assisting in providing much needed protective gear for health care workers. Our goal is to create an open-sourced face shield that is cheap and reusable that can be made at home. Utilizing materials such as polypropylene and non-latex foam, the entire design is 100% autoclavable, allowing for multiple uses per shield.
