Soft Circuits Toolkit

Faire: Eindhoven

Maker: Katrien van Riet

Home: Nederland

The Soft Circuits Toolkit allows anyone to prototype fully soft circuits that work on air instead of electricity. These circuits can be used to create soft robots or intelligent devices such as shape-changing wearables. Because these designs are fully soft, and thus safer for humans to interact with, they show great potential in areas such as healthcare and human-robot interaction. The toolkit includes a range of components, including those that you normally find in analog electronics.

LibraryMed

Faire: Rome

Maker: Epitomea

Clients & problems: Healthcare professionals and students. Busy schedules, statistical illiteracy and information saturation make it difficult for them to stay up-to-date. “In the biomedical field alone, more than 1 million articles pour into the PubMed database each year […]” (Nature). The problems are known, but hard to quantify in net terms. Our clients difficulties lies in that periodic and in-depth professional updating activity is a work in itself. Sacrificing patient hours for studying is sometimes not possible. Among the most unpleasant consequences, the discovery that a patient has been treated with an outdated therapy. Such an eventuality would be preferable not to be turned turn into a "necessary evil", a painful trade-off between the number of patients who require treatment and the quality of the treatment that can be administered. In addition to the suffering on a strictly human level, another problem that is becoming more acute is that of lawsuits for "malpractice". Growing, they discourage doctors from riskier practices for patients, as well as young people from embarking on a medical career. Our solution: it can be described as a search engine which, because of an AI algorithm, is able to: - Search for scientific articles related to a specific query and summarize their content; - Classify the results on the basis of various parameters (e.g. methodological value, citations, impact factor), assigning them a qualitative value, thus identifying the most solid research; - Aggregate the results based on the aforementioned parameters; - Produce an output that can be consulted quickly, listing the sources on which the analysis was conducted to draw up an effective overview on which to plan an update; - Assisting researcher in scientific writing & data production; - Automatic meta-analysis. Innovation: First, we will move away from the DSS (Decision Support System) approach of our main competitor, Uptodate.com, to embrace a full AI paradigm. Then, we will find a niche in the scientific publication sector, by creating a set of tool for many scientists willing to publish high quality research. By doing to, our analytic efficiency will further increase. We already have a registered trademark and an industrial patent.

Project Empire

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Empire of Dirt

Home: California, United States

Inspired by the heyday of science fiction concept art, the cryptic history of a canceled NASA mission, and the optimism and hipness of the early 60’s Apollo Rocket Age, Project: EMPIRE (Early Manned Planetary-Interplanetary Roundtrip Expeditions) is the physical creation of a mythological spacecraft and a new anachronistic style we call AEROSPACEPUNK.

ArtAtomic by Kristin Henry

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Kristin Henry

Home: California, United States

Science, Nature, and Mathematics are at the core of Kristin Henry’s work. While working in Science and Data visualization, Henry also developed a practice creating artworks, and showing them under the name ArtAtomic. Alternating between developing code and working with more traditional tools like an embroidery needle or a glass dipping pen, Henry is always experimenting. In addition to works on paper, she also works with other media, like computer projections, textiles, wearable art. This exhibit will show many of these. For those familiar with the GalaxyGoo’s Cell Project workshops at past Maker Faires, she will also be bringing pre-made organelle models, so that you can make 3D models of cells at home.

The Scion: A Hero In Motion

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Andrew Spielberg

Home: Massachusetts, United States

The Scion: A Hero In Motion is a superhero story that teaches science, targeted toward preteens, teens and young college students. Ray Gallagher (superhero alias “The Scion”) is a college science student with the power to manipulate the forces of nature — but only if he deeply understands them. If Ray understands gravity, he can jump extra high; if he understands heat and energy, he can manipulate fire. Through this mechanism, story and teaching are intertwined. The Scion covers topics in-depth in a pedagogical fashion, and concepts build upon each other and are revisited throughout the novel. It is The Magic Schoolbus for middle-grade, but with added emphasis on conceptual learning. We presented an earlier version online at Maker Faire: Capitol Hill. We hope you like the previews!
