One in five adults have sleep apnea. Sleep apnea sufferers need better, more affordable solutions. Existing devices are bulky and costly. This project is a proof of concept for a new, inexpensive device that will be available at a competitive cost compared to current market options. The device will utilize an all-new timing specific application of pressurized air delivery to improve the patient's quality of sleep. At this exhibit, visitors will have the opportunity to view the device in action; connected to a model head with visible mock lungs to see how the device affects the level of air in the patient's lungs.
