[Explanation] The new crown epidemic is raging around the world, and topics such as health and quarantine and medical care remain hot.
A few days ago, the School of Engineering of City University of Hong Kong opened its research and laboratory for the first time to showcase the latest detection technology and innovative medical technology.
[Explanation] Under the epidemic, food safety, environmental monitoring and other fields have attracted much attention.
The team of Professor Hu Zhiwen from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering of the City University of Hong Kong demonstrated the project "Research and Application of Nanomaterials in Biosensors". The composition of the samples was compared and analyzed by collecting the wavelength changes of light passing through different materials.

Assuming this is the sample we want to test, we will use this pump to dip into this sample. As you can see, there is a light path design to let this light shine on the gold, and then we will have a machine here. , Responsible for collecting these changes in light, we can see here at any time, the changes of different wavelengths, if it reacts with gold, this blue line will start to be a little different from the red one.
[Explanation] On the same day, in addition to showing cutting-edge detection technology, an entrepreneurial team composed of three city university students also demonstrated a newly developed "medical bed-passing robot" that can support people with disabilities to freely switch between different platforms , To facilitate their daily activities and life.

On the way to school, I saw a wheelchair user who wanted to get in and out of a taxi, but the taxi driver didn’t come down to help, so he couldn’t get there in the end. So at that time, as an engineering student, I was thinking about meeting on the market. There will not be a tool that can move people, such as wheelchair users, from the wheelchair to the third platform, such as a sofa, such as a bed.
[Explanation] On the day of the open day, the entrepreneurial team also demonstrated the operation method of the "medical robot".

You see, if I want this person, from this wheelchair or from this machine, to carry this hypothetical bed, in fact, you will see that the first thing to solve is the problem of height difference, so we are the first step This seat must be raised.
You can see in the process, in fact, if we were originally at home, we would have two or three people to do this.
In fact, with this robot, it becomes (a person), using the robot's control technology to make all the electronic parts move together.
Next is how to get him from here to here, and now we will turn him out.
[Explanation] According to the team, the robot is also equipped with sensors and an intelligent leveling system, which can be operated by one button via the remote control, greatly liberating manpower.
This design is about to implement a pilot project in the Hong Kong Summer Palace Elderly Center to collect more elderly people's daily use data in order to optimize the product.
