SunPedal
The path to a sustainable “Vision Zero” future requires innovation and re-envisioning of nearly every facet of transportation as we know it.
While electric and autonomous vehicles have thus far dominated the conversation, other less car-centric solutions warrant addressing. First, however, we must address and build up critical infrastructure solutions to make these alternative options more viable and attractive.

Intermission
Asthma is a lung disease which causes the airways to become inflamed and narrowed at times. 1 in 13 Americans have asthma and it is the leading chronic disease in children. Inhalers are the most common treatment for asthma. The goal with Intermission is to modernize the maintenance inhaler and design a more effective solution with electronic actuation. By slowing down the aerosolized medicine into the lungs, medicine absorption is maximized.

SolarSENSE
There are over 500 million smallholder farms in the world. They make up a significant portion of the world’s poorest people, living on less than $2 a day, and they produce about a third of the world’s food.
Our goal with SolarSENSE is to make some of the technology that is typically only available to large industrial farms more accessible to these small family farms and help them adapt their farming practices to climate change impacts.
