The Task

The assigment for IEEE’s Antenna and Propagation Society conference 2015’s student competition was to build an antenna that works on biological tissue. I was part of the team to figure out how exactly to measure breath, and to create a video of our project.

The Solution

We built used a resistive band to measure the change in circumference of the wearer’s chest.
