We have been working on our gantt chart and we have uploaded the gantt chart on the project website: https://my.vanderbilt.edu/plateletcoolerseniordesign/gantt-chart/gantt-chart-1/

We also in our brainstorming process in order to come out with an improvised design to provide the smart cooler with 3 blood products compartments instead of 2.

We also utilizing the CPDA (Citrate Phosphate Dextrose Adenine Solution) bag as a simulation to the platelet bag to design attachable device on it that will be to prevent people spiking it to add the bag safety features. Currently, we are still brainstorming the design. A possible material that can be used is galium because it has very low melting point (at room temperature). Further studies about galium need to be carried out before incorporating galium into our design.
