The 3-D printed origami tube is a low-cost portable ventilator developed by researchers in Canada. The tube is designed with a 3-D printed origami tube and the volume of the tube is modified by changing the origami folding plates. This tube has a rotating behavior under compressive force, this allows the architectured pressure sensing function to activate. Once this is activated, the sensor can measure the compressed angle to determine the detected pressure needed in a ventilator circuit.

Cost effective, this 3-D ventilator only costs $200 to make vs $2000 for a traditional ventilator.

Lightweight, weighing only 4.5kg. This makes it easy to move around the hospitals when transporting patients.

This new ventilator is a great new innovation during the Covid-19 pandemic. There has been a world-wide shortage of ventilators due to the pandemic. This ventilator would allow a quick, cost-effective distribution nationwide and would alleviate the shortage at hand.

Newly developed

Not available world wide

Little research information in study

Will take time to get fully developed and in hospitals

Team member selection and my personal strengths 

# data[].attributes.body
Daisy's top strength is being a developer. She would add value to this team by seeing the potential in others, find improvements that need to be done and would get them done well.

Faith's top strength is being futuristic. Her drive for the future and what can be done would add great value to this team.

Louis's top strength is being a learner. He would add value to this team because he is always interested in learning new ideas and ways to improve outcomes.

Pablo's top strength is positivity, he would add value because a team always needs some positivity when tackling a new project. His positive attitude would motivate other team members.

William's top strength is "Woo". This would add great value because he could connect well with the right people, and people are drawn to him and his ideas.

My top 5 Strengths: Developer, relator, responsibility, restorative, and empathy.

I chose a team with several different strengths than my own. I believe that individuals working together with their own special talents is more productive than a team with the same top strengths.

I would add value to this team because I would take ownership of what needed to be done, admit my rights and wrongs, build a close relationship with team members, and empathize with others around me.

Technology takes the art of origami into the fight against COVID-19

I think this a great innovation for this period in time. We all have seen the effect covid has had on the hospital and on staff. There have been times during this pandemic when a "choice" had to be made on which patients to place on ventilators due to limited availability. Having this 3-D ventilator available would allow all patients to get the care that they need when they come to the hospital. Going forward, I would like to see more studies on this ventilator with precise information on the effectiveness it has on patient outcomes.
