We are working on Project 2: Incubator for low birth weight infants in
rural zones
The challenge is design a prototype incubator that provide the basic
functions of temperature control and air filtration, manufactured from
locally available parts and repaired by local technicians. Design for
the local conditions, such as temperature extremes.
We are looking for a free RepRap kit for our project. If you interested in work with us on prototyping you could contact Paola arilyes at yahoo com and she could give you more details about our projects in Peru.
Paola is an engineer from my group in Peru. She is at IDDS-MIT until
August 9 and she is blogging at http://scitechbizdev.blogspot.com/
