"Global Winner Best Use of Hardware 2016"
NASA International Space Apps
This is a breakthrough in early warning systems: moving from single-use-product solutions to multi-faceted predictive biometrics systems that can be constantly improving. Our wearable equipment is akin to the difference between a beeper phone and a smartphone: multi-sensor wearable computational hardware that may be updated with each new version of the software.
For example, asphyxiation prediction is likely to be our first software update to be rolled out to the Canaria-V hardware.
