Tezpur University (TU) students have designed an IoT (Internet of things) based portable ventilator to fight Covid-19, which can be life saving in case of respiratory failure.
As shortage of ventilators have been haunting the country since breakout of the Covid crisis, the electrical engineering department of TU has undertaken an initiative to design a portable ventilator- an essential instrument for patients who are unable to sustain the level of ventilatory necessary to maintain the gas exchange functions.
