Introduction

Deciding which project I want pursue as a final project is not an easy thing as I have a very long list of to-make projects. But as I'm recenly interested in the idea of having open-source medical devices, I intended to work on one. I have lately stumbled upon Luma League project and it inspired me. So, my idea for the final project is to make a low-cost baby incubator primarily for Jaundice treatment in newborns as a simple solution to a complex problem in the developing world as if it's untreated, can lead to brain damage or death. I also plan to extend the care of ill or premature newborn infants to keep them warm and hydrated as the incubator will be integrated with a monitoring system and equipped with superbright LEDs to expose the baby skin to blue light with a wavelength of about 458 nm in sufficient amounts.
