The goal of this project is to design a portable, low-cost neonatal incubator for use in hospitals and rural areas of Honduras. Incubators currently exist on the market but they are expensive and bulky. The long term goal is to provide the basic care that these incubators give in a lightweight and durable incubator, and allow for the transport of these incubators from rural areas to local hospitals • 6 hour battery life • Total weight of less than 13.5 kg • Infant bed can incline to 15 and 30 • Low cost • Humidity control from 40% to 77% relative humidity • Temperature control of infant Acknowledgments Cory Stiehl and Chris Leibfried, MSD Guide Mary Golden, RIT Hope for Honduras Project Director Dr. Alejandro Young, Chief Neonatologist of Hospital Esquela Dr. Elizabeth DeBartalo and Multidisciplina Senior Design Background Engineering Requirements The Team Electrical System Schematic User Case Mechanical CAD Models of incubator Drawing Preview Next Generation Recommendations -Pulse oximeter -Oxygen -Infusion Pump -Heart rate monitor -Ambu Hyperinflation bag Preliminary circuit with sensor display
