The Challenge | Make Sense Out of Mars
ASTRO SPECTRA FOLDING VEHICLE AND BIOMEDICAL DEVICE
A smart folding light weighted car with digital environmental sensing laboratory and a biomedical sensor to check astronaut’s health while riding the car on the surface of mars.
We are dealing with the problem “Make Sense Out of Mars”.
Our passion is to built new technology using old one Which lead us to the solution “Astro Spectra folding vehicle and a biomedical device”.
WHAT DO PEOPLE GAIN?
A smart folding light weighted car with digital environmental sensing laboratory and a biomedical sensor to check astronaut’s health while riding the car on the surface of mars.
WHERE IS THE OPPORTUNITY?
On Mars for the humans to stay on the red planet for long-term.
What problem does it solve?
It is a portable device that we can deploy to move on the ground, around the planet to study environment as well as a biomedical sensor to monitor astronaut's health constantly.So it result into a cheaper transport compared to other rovers or lander which are much costlier than our device.
How does it work?
It’s a folding smart car, can be controlled through gesture, or on a button click, or by voice command, as well as it carries a full environmental studying laboratory and a biomedical sensor which constantly study the astronaut’s heart rate, PPG and body temperature and all the reading can be observed from our Android Application “Spectra”.
What will your idea change?
It changes the mode of transport on the other heavenly bodies of the cosmoses and by taking care of the rider of the vehicle.
What can your solution do for people, the world and beyond?
It is a step for humans to stay on the red planet for long term.
