Kenneth Ray’s Senior Capstone

Reason

• Designed for fetus’ that due to medical or physical (mother of fetus) reasons will be terminated.

• Anything before week 6-8 or day 40 due to lung development has a very low survival rate

Theory

• If the fetus is removed form a defective host (mother) the chances of survival are increased.

• The fetus is removed from the host before proper development of fetus’ vital organs.

Supporting Ideas

Ac

The unit

• Orb (incubation chamber)

• Isis (Software/Hardware)

• Robotic Arms

• Schematic pics here, maybe background on graphing paper

• Exploded diagram pic

Orb

• Ballistic gel material• Used due to recyclable

capabilities, very easy to produce, also small incision can be made and no fluids will leak

• low –med impacts and not damage no transfer shock wave(impact) to fetus

Isis

• Software will monitor fetus vitals (heart rate, temp, etc.).

• Software will control IR Cam, thermometer, vid cam, and networking.

• Software will have access to a database for comparison of data among doctors and researchers

• GUI for ease of use• SQL for searching database• Database created using c++

(compare pros and cons of which language used) EASYSQL-created using class in C++

• GUI created using C#• Python• Ruby over rails• Ajax

Interface

Software to Hardware

Hardware Programming :Drivers are instructions that a device use to perform

tasks .

Robots

• Unsure of the number of arms needed but.

• scalpel(heating iron)• drill• Sonar arm• Double scalpel for

emergency extraction• Vacuum to remove

fetus from host

• 3 prong• M.B.

Robot motion• Axis of motion

The build

• //Document process with writing publications and also a video(time lapse cam mode).

Comparison

• Stages of pregnancy• //Week by week

comparison

• Unit• //Unit will mimic each

step of a pregnancy.

Operating

• //Several videos of unit in operation performing self-test and desired operations

References to abbr.

• EasySql is created in C++ by using the #include <easysql/easysql.h> class.

• 3 Prong is a unit used to transfer fluid.

• M.B. –mesh Balloon used to attach cords
