Innovations & PROJECTS
SixFeetApart
(2020) As millions of people became infected with COVID-19 around the world and Neha saw the direct impact of the pandemic on her community, she invented SixFeetApart. SixFeetApart is a wearable social-distancing device that utilizes the latest developments in ultrasonic technology to detect when an approaching person comes within the 6-foot detection range. SixFeetApart effectively guides social distancing according to the CDC's guidelines in order to slow the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.
MobileMe
(2021) Adults older than 65 years of age suffer the greatest number of fatal falls because of age-related mobility loss. To solve this problem, I invented MobileMe, a device and app that proactively prevents mobility loss and falls in the elderly. MobileMe uses real-time analysis of gait data collected through a microprocessor device through AI to mitigate fall risk and mobility loss in the elderly.
Water Purification
(2019) Conducted a lab study to optimize various water purification methods and created a prototype for a method to purify river water to be used as drinking water in developing countries. Used microbiological procedures and chemical studies to investigate purification methods such as activated carbon, micro-filtration, UV disinfection, and natural coagulants to remove impurities.
Diagnosing Neurodegenerative Diseases with Brain-Computer Interfaces
Ongoing innovation to diagnose neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimers' and Parkinsons' with Brain-Computer Interfaces. Expected start date in fall 2021.
