Sleep Apnea Device
For my Introduction to Engineering Design and Manufacturing class, my team was tasked with developing a new design for a sleep apnea mouth device. Current (non-CPAP) mouth devices treat sleep apnea by suction on the tongue or shifting the lower jaw forward, which can cause discomfort and/or long term damage. After half a semester of prototyping and iterations, we came up with our final design and a series of recommendations.
