The device, which will resemble an ordinary shoe sole, will be comprised of mainly two parts. There is a small plastic box, which is inlaid (so the user does not feel it) into the rear of the sole that houses the battery and radio transmitter. There are also thin copper sensors near the front of the sole that sense the temperature of the user. The sensors are connected to the transmitter by wires that run through the inside of the sole and are not externally visible. On the back right portion of the sole, there is a small power button that displays the battery percentage when the device is on. Next to the power button, there is also a charging port for the battery. The sole will be made of a high quality fiber infused with gel, ensuring that it is comfortable, durable, and strong. This device replaces the insole of the athlete's shoe and is easily installable.

Descriptive Statistics






Results




Analysis





Summary/Discussion

In order to detrermine how valid and reliable the device is as well as identify any design flaws the temperature readings on the device and the oral thermometer were measured and compared. 5 temprature were taken, each every two minutes using both device and the oral thermometer at the same time. Then 12 temprature were taken while walking around the campus. Each every 5 minutes using both deviec and the oral thermometer at the same time. Two device out of nine didn't work and the t-test was run only on the rest of them between the oral thermometer and the device. The sensors on the device didn'nt accurately work and they didn;t correlate with the results from the oral thermametor. The p value was less than 0.05 wich shows that the device is not statistically accurate.


(Please discuss the results and statistical analysis. State your conclusion as well as design flaws and recommendations.)





LAB 3B WRITE-UP

Target Population and Need

The product will be marketed to parents of young athletes - specifically, to parents who are concerned about the health of their children. It will monitor the child's temperature by sending realtime data as he/she performs his/her athletic activity. Concerned parents who's children participate in athletics in hot climates will be able to monitor the body temperature of their kids, ensuring that their children do not experience heat stroke or heat exhaustion.




Device Design

The device, which will resemble an ordinary shoe sole, will be comprised of mainly two parts. There is a small plastic box, which is inlaid (so the user does not feel it) into the rear of the sole that houses the battery and radio transmitter. There are also thin copper sensors near the front of the sole that sense the temperature of the user. The sensors are connected to the transmitter by wires that run through the inside of the sole and are not externally visible. On the back right portion of the sole, there is a small power button that displays the battery percentage when the device is on. Next to the power button, there is also a charging port for the battery. The sole will be made of a high quality fiber infused with gel, ensuring that it is comfortable, durable, and strong. This device replaces the insole of the athlete's shoe and is easily installable.
