Hero: Automated Detection System for Prescription Stimulant Overdose via AI-Based Emotion Inference, Metabolite Detection, and Biometric Measurement

Published in Open Journal of Applied Sciences, 2020

Over the past year, approximately 10,000 Americans have died by psychostimulant overdose, and over 50% of these deaths were caused by prescription stimulant misuse. A comprehensive approach to detect a drug overdose in the environment where it occurs is imperative to reduce the number of prescription stimulant overdose-related deaths. Teenagers are at the highest risk for prescription stimulant overdose, so this study proposes a multi-factor overdose detection system named Hero which is designed to noninvasively operate within the context of a teen’s life. Hero monitors five factors that indicate stimulant abuse: extreme mood swings, presence of amphetamine metabolite in sweat excreted from the fingertip, heart rate, blood pressure, and respiration rate.

Development and implementation of enzymatic and volatile compound-based approaches for instantaneous detection of pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus

Published in Journal of Emerging Investigators, 2021

Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) has a mortality rate of up to 30% in developing countries. In contrast, the mortality rate of S. aureus in the U.S. is less than 5%. One reason for the six-fold increase in fatality in underdeveloped communities is lack of access to a rapid, accurate, and user-friendly diagnostic method to enable timely detection of these infections. The purpose of this experiment was to determine if enzymatic and volatile compound-based approaches would perform more quickly in comparison to existing S. aureus diagnostic methods and to evaluate these novel methods on accuracy. Further, we sought to implement them in a reusable 3D-printed instantaneous detection device.

Real-Time Intervention Framework for Nicotine Poisoning via Identification of Alternate Compound and a Smart E-Cigarette Device

Published in MIT Undergraduate Research Journal, 2021

There has been a 200-fold increase in nicotine poisoning-related hospitalizations over the past decade which can be attributed to the rising popularity of electronic cigarette use or “vaping.” E-cigarettes are battery-powered devices designed to vaporize a liquid that consists of lung-damaging additives, flavorings, and nicotine. Due to the potency and palatability of this vapor, users can easily ingest a dangerous level of nicotine and experience symptoms such as difficulty breathing, dizziness, and seizures. This paper proposes a smart e-cigarette device capable of tracking nicotine release with respect to time, stopping traditional vape liquid release when a threshold is reached, and switching to a safer compound.
