Massage On a Bottle

Faire: Rome

Maker: Massage on a Bottle

Can a plastic bottle be useful in a different way and teach us something before being recycled? In our opinion yes! In this project we use a plastic bottle of mineral water to simulate the resistance that the abdomen of the human body opposes during compressions in emergency cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (ETC). For the training of people in this type of maneuvers, are generally used specialized dummies that, while reproducing in an exact manner the human anatomy, are on the other hand very expensive, limiting in fact the number of people who can try at least once the experience of simulation. This idea was born from the observations of one of the two members of the project team (Luigi) who has been working for many years as a volunteer and is engaged as a trainer for resuscitation maneuvers in emergency. In order to make this kind of experience accessible to anyone, from the collaboration with the other team member (Pierluigi, Electronic Technician and Maker), this project was developed on two different levels: the first, conceived to be extremely simple, which in addition to the bottle uses a small mechanical device capable of rendering both visual and sound feedback when the right level of compression is reached. the second, which integrates the first, with a Smartphone app capable of detecting from the device the rhythm of the compressions performed and confirming the correct execution of the maneuver. The app, moreover, provides useful indications on how to perform the operations and allows to share the experience and spread the use of the device and the app. All this is done both in a training setting and in complete autonomy. This project aims to increase as much as possible the number of people who, at least once in their lives, have tried the practice of external chest compressions for cardiopulmonary resuscitation. In this way, in fact, it increases the number of individuals potentially able to save a life. From the moment a person goes into cardiac arrest, the time available to intervene is very limited and spread the culture of how to perform a maneuver of this type can, in some cases, make the difference between life and death. Our presence at the fair will allow us to have visitors try out external chest compression maneuvers, effectively creating a training environment.

Medical procedures on virtual patients.

Faire: Rome

Maker: VETRO (Virtual Experience with Tactile RObotics)

The project proposes an innovative interaction between physical and virtual reality using Weart's touchDIVER and the Oculus Rift S visor. The operator uses the touchDIVER and the visor to immerse himself in the virtual environment. A robotic hand replicates the movements of the physical hand, allowing interaction with virtual objects, including a CT-reconstructed abdominal section. The touchDIVER provides haptic feedback of force, temperature and texture. The aim is to offer an innovative medical simulation experience for surgeons, doctors and students, facilitating practice and learning.

Sass N Harmony

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Sass N Harmony

Home: California, United States

Sass N Harmony is a multi-instrumental trio, best described as soul folk. The music of Sass N Harmony is imbued with mischief and magic to bring you lyrics immersed in archetypes and folk-tales. Their vocals fly together like a tight triangle of birds overhead, agilely changing directions when needed. At times angelic and feathery and other times cackling and edgy, full of tension and resolve, with lyrics that go straight to the heart. We will be performing on the Rock the Bike pedal power sound system. We are proud to have previously toured with bike-powered sound through 14 different countries in Europe and North America for a total of over 12 months of biking!! We are looking forward to contributing to this ongoing community of environmental musicians and sustainable technologies!

LIGNOPACK – Bioplastic from food waste for food packaging

Faire: Rome

Maker: Università degli Studi della Tuscia

Every year in the field of food packaging synthetic additives are used for the development of plastic packaging, whose deleterious impact they have on the marine ecosystem and on human health is now known. LIGNOPACK is proposed as a natural alternative to the current toxic additives being composed of natural substances: lignin and chitosan. The union of these two biopolymers as nanoparticles has allowed the development of a completely natural additive that can be used in food packaging, with great advantages in terms of sustainability, performance and cost-effectiveness. “LIGNOPACK represents a biotechnological innovation aimed at the circular bioeconomy''.

f@b.CPL – f@b.SmartCity

Faire: Lisbon

Maker: Casa Pia de Lisboa, IP

Home: Lisboa/Lisboa/Belém, Portugal

O f@b.SmartCity nasceu do projeto f@b.TGV no Ano Europeu do Transporte Ferroviário. Inicialmente assentava na construção de um comboio e respetivas infraestruturas adjacentes, permitindo aos alunos o desenvolvimento de competências na área do desenho, eletrónica, robótica e telecomunicações, sensibilizando-os ainda para temas como o ambiente e a sustentabilidade. Com estes últimos temas, surgiu a ideia de criar uma cidade inteligente e ao mesmo tempo sustentável do ponto de vista energético e dos demais recursos. Para a exposição transportamos apenas uma fração de dimensão reduzida do f@b.SmartCity, dada a impossibilidade de movimentar o projeto patente nas instalações do f@b.CPL.

I am a stained glass artist. I have been working with glass for over a decade. Working in my studio allows me to get lost in my passion to create unique pieces of art. I feel creativity is my serenity, a place to escape from my busy work week ,relax and rejuvenate . I have always been fascinated by color and texture. The combination of metal and glass and the way glass sparkles in the sunshine inspires me. I repurpose unique pieces of metal and wood to frame my glasswork. My style is strongly influenced by nature. My art consists of trees, dragonflies, flowers, ocean scenes, and sunshine.

We call it Boxbot. The cardboard chassis and extremely low-cost (features compete with $300 robotics products, but it's only $30 in parts) means that almost any school, student, or self-directed learner can do real robotics. This project was developed completely by the MARS team, students developing engaging learning experiences for students.
