Now in its fourth year, the Stretch Robot Pitch Competition continues to evolve into one of Georgia Tech’s most imaginative and human‑centered design challenges. First place was awarded to “Chef Stretch,” a concept aimed at helping older adults with disabilities determine whether food has spoiled so they can prepare and consume food safely. The five-student team included Caitlin Woodward and Elizabeth Thompson (College of Engineering), Aditi Ashok (Scheller College of Business), and Michelle Gu and Vedita Sawhney (College of Sciences).

Georgia Tech delivers FCC Mobile Broadband Test app
Congrats to Jeremy Johnson, David Peeler, Jeff Wilson, and Ellen Zegura!

The FCC has approved CellWatch as the only 3rd-party speed-test app compliant with the FCC's Broadband Data Collection Program.

CellWatch allows consumers to collect detailed broadband measurements to challenge mobile broadband coverage claims from carriers and improve the FCC's broadband maps.

The team-- including alumni Jason Cox and Scott Roberson-- spent the past 3-ish years developing the app and navigating the FCC's approval process, so it's been a long road. Way to go!
Speed tests run on the FCC Mobile Speed Test app, or on approved third party apps, can be shared with the FCC to help evaluate mobile coverage across the United States and to verify the accuracy of FCC broadband maps.

Overview: Members of the Georgia Tech community (students, faculty, and staff) and individuals from St. Helena Island, South Carolina, and nearby communities have the opportunity to participate in a unique alternative spring break at the Penn Center National Historic Landmark District on St. Helena Island. In collaboration with the Gullah/Geechee Nation, this multidisciplinary arts initiative will create transformative opportunities while honoring one of America’s most significant cultural landmarks. The program, which is funded by a Catalyst Grant from Georgia Tech Arts, will cover all lodging, most meals, and transportation for participants during the residency. The program will also provide optional transportation to and from Atlanta for the residency. Additional details will be made available to individuals who are selected for the residency.

A new, soft, all-in-one, wearable system has been designed for continuous wireless monitoring of neonatal health in low-resource settings. Developed by Georgia Tech researchers using advanced packaging technologies, the system features a chest-mounted patch and a forehead-mounted pulse oximeter that transmits real-time data to a smartphone app. https://research.gatech.edu/advancing-neonatal-health-monitoring-ethiopia
