The WPI Students

The students who took part in this project were all third-year undergraduates from Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI). The project was a degree requirement known as the Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP), which “challenges students to address a problem that lies at the intersection of science or technology with social issues and human needs.”[18] The students involved in this project were:

  • Lauren Harris
  • Andrea Kates
  • Timothy Momose
  • Chris Overton
