SurgiGauge made great progress on all fronts, from the electrical and mechanical to the testing sub teams. Essential electronics were integrated and a new iteration of mechanical design was completed (along with 3-D prints!). The testing team is continuously improving the testing environment, minimizing points of error and bias, as well as creating an environment “as close to the real thing” as possible.

This week, the team had the privilege of hearing from Rick Garcia, an R&D Senior Manager of Advanced Engineering at Johnson & Johnson VisionCare, as he spoke on Leadership in Engineering. The team took away valuable insight that will be applied to our careers.

The team also prepares for the first Qualification Review Board (QRB) of the semester, where the team will have the opportunity to showcase progress and receive feedback from faculty coaches on the team plan for completion of all deliverables.
