Previous work had been done on what was an adaptation of a robotic arm for Roboqueen, which is a persistent research project of the Department of Computer Engineering Technology. This robotic arm consisted of removing the cardboard hands from the Roboqueen and being replaced by 3D printed fingers and wrists to add functionality that did not exist before. Servo motors connected to Arduinos hidden in the forearm will be used to move the fingers and pick up and hold objects in the hand. Currently, the Finger Myoware is an update of the robotic arm in order to understand how prosthetic …

According to the Safety Organization Kids and Cars, an average of 38 children die each year from hot cars due to lack of attention from parents. Existing alert system uses sensors that detect child presence and care less about detecting temperature inside the car. In order to save children from heatstroke, our research focuses on providing information about the temperature inside the car using very effective sensors with high precision. In our research, we have tested different sensors and figured out three sensors that can provide precise information about the presence of a child without an adult. Our child detection …
