VOX
A team of designers and engineers banded together to optimize the ventilator for an overburdened supply chain constraining health care capacity. Out of that came VOX; A pneumatically-driven ventilator, optimized for a COVID-19 health care context. Assembled in under 4 hours using a mix of custom housings and readily available Off-The-Shelf components.
Working alongside one other Mechanical Engineer,, we were able to architect and design a fully functioning prototype ventilator in 4 weeks. The device was then rigorously tested with results validated by Medical Device Experts and Medical Professionals to ensure it was capable of meeting needs of a ventilator in both COVID and general use scenarios.
