Project Overview

The previous design team has developed a CCTO peptide sensor to measure the levels of clotting factors within the blood. We are tasked with improving the previously developed system, including a microfluidic device used to collect the sample, a method for plasma separation, an excitation light source that produces a florescence output indicating the concentration of target protein present, a spectrometer device tailored to work with Raspberry Pi, and finally the Raspberry Pi system to be used as the electronic control of the entire device. The system that was previously developed is effective and roughly accurate, however our goal this semester is to reduce the manual steps required for the CCTO sensor to be effective, improve accuracy, and improve the electronic interface.
