The three finalists of the first Technology Contest IEEE-UPCT association have been awarded today to 600 euros, which the authors go to complete the development of technological ideas and the implementation of ICT in a smart room multisensory stimulation, manufacturing a robot caterpillar vehicle and machine production of energy from ocean waves.
The first of the winning projects is a project to implement the new technologies of information and communication rooms multisensory stimulation to help train the mind and motor skills in occupational therapy care of people with disabilities and elderly with cognitive impairment.
"The current facilities are technologically obsolete, by not incorporating the possibilities given ICT for ease of use", explained the authors of the idea.
Students, Alejandro Díaz Giménez, Victor Manuel Lopez Robles and Antonio Hernandez Diaz, all of the School of Industrial, have come to budget the cost, estimated at 600 euros, to equip an intelligent multisensory room via a control unit that processes signals stimulation devices and software to control the room from a Tablet.
It has also been recognized as a winner the project of building a robot caterpillar-type vehicle for the exploration of rough terrain and measuring multiple environmental parameters.
The vehicle collision incorporate two sensors to prevent accidents, an ultrasonic sensor to warn of front obstacles and an infrared sensor to detect bumps or steep slopes.
The idea includes the incorporation of a camera to facilitate remote control of the vehicle.
The draft Eduardo Ruiz González, student Telecommunications has included the budget to build and equip the robot with multiple sensors for environmental monitoring.
Third has been designing Carlos English English student at the School of Naval, a machine producing energy from ocean waves.
The project is a buoy that transfers the sinusoidal wave motion to a connecting rod and crankshaft, whose rotary movement is in turn transferred to an electric generator.
The idea is that the system will cover the energy needs of small facilities such as farms or isolated dwellings.
The student has come to develop a model of the project, from design in 3D.
The three winning projects have committed to complete the development of his ideas to present the different developments in the next Week of Science and Technology.
