As part of the WPI ICAS lab I worked on Transcutaneous Carbon Dioxide Sensing. The goal of the project was to improve on a method of measuring CO2 levels on a human body without the use of invasive methods or big machinery. My team and I initially focused on testing and understanding compounding factors of multiple sensors such as temperature, humidity, CO2, and O2. As the project progressed, we began to develop a PCB board the size of a watch that is capable of accurately measuring CO2 and O2 levels on the human skin through optical means. The project further involved digital design techniques in order to program the board correctly and digital signal processing so that the sensor data was accurately translated into information that can later be used for medical diagnosis.
