  Our sensor

Inspiration

Our inspiration was a project we did for a hackathon last year which had the protection of the environment as a goal by reducing microplastics.

What it does

It basically detects pesticides but also contains a platform to upload measurements to create data sets for scientists to use for research from all over the world.

How we built it

We firstly clearly understood our goal and then did extensive research to find approaches that would help us achieve it. Then we also did research on the problem.

Challenges we ran into

The time limit, which made the work required hard to balance with our everyday tasks. Also, as we are using a recent invention as our base, we had to do deep research to find accurate information.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of the quality of the research we achieved, which gives our project a strong scientific foundation.

What we learned

We learnt about the dangers of pesticides and how widespread their use actually is. Moreover, we were introduced to the innovative concept of immunosensors.

What's next for Pesticide Detector

Widespread deployment and implementation of our idea after the creation of a prototype .
