SpiroSmart is a technology that allows users to test pulmonary function by blowing into a microphone on a cell phone. The project uses a custom mobile application that measures input from the phone&#8217;s built-in mic. The intention of the project was to determine whether at home spirometry could be a viable option to measure health related outcomes. I was attracted to this project because it was such a simple yet powerful way of using existing technology to improve health.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TransWall, Heejeong Heo, et al\u00a0(2013)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"TransWall\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/70391422?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Link to\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/s2013.siggraph.org\/attendees\/emerging-technologies\/events\/transwall\">project<\/a>. This project utilizes a transducer to detect vibrations on a transparent glass panel.
