Embodied Brain Technology - SafeStep

While participating in a 10-day neurotech practicum hosted by Brown and Ben-Gurion University. I had the chance to lead a great team, prototyping, programming and presenting a fall-prevention device for older adults using 3D printing, EEG, a Raspberry Pi, and a bunch of electronic components held together by zip ties, code, loose wires and an unhealthy amount of caffeine.

Beyond building, we had inspiring lectures on both sides of neurotech: the neuro - deep dives into brain science; and the tech - more precisely, about how to turn an idea into a startup.

It was hands-on, collaborative, and full of moments that reminded me why I love working at the intersection of tech and the mind.
