SeaSentinel - port drone preventing contamination. New SimLE project

Dron
Students from the science club SimLE are working on a new project. It is SeaSentinel, a port drone that will monitor the cleanliness of the port basin from the water level, but also prevent any contamination.

The originator of the project is Igor Rusiecki, a first-year student of ocean engineering at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Ship Technology. He started working on the drone while still in high school (and got to the final of the Explory competition already at the preliminary stage of work), and now he decided to continue his work at Gdańsk University of Technology with the SimLE team.

Rapid COVID-19 screening

device that analyzes air samples
Scientists from Gdańsk University of Technology designed a device that analyzes air samples of exhaled air for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Ultimately, the device will allow to obtain a result within a minute, for a symbolic “penny”, less inconveniently for the patient than the currently applied methods. Recognized by American media popularizing scientific achievements, the device is being tested at the Institute of Maritime and Tropical Medicine in Gdynia, by doctors of the Medical University of Gdańsk.

– Our method is not as accurate as the currently used tests, however it is faster, considerably cheaper and more pleasant than the nasopharyngeal specimen collection. Therefore, it will prove useful as a screening method that allows initial confirmation of infection and recommendation for the accurate test – underlines  Prof.
