In this special Episode Clem does not build a project himself but instead showcases Trinamic's Open source Ventilator project. An important effort in the fight against the coronavirus pandemic. A lot of hospitals don't have enough ventilation devices for their patients, and to prevent this in the future, the goal is to develop an open source alternative that can be locally produced and would fill that gap quickly in case of a new pandemic. A Raspberry pi 4 controls Trinamic's Motion control and motor driver ICs that regulate a blower fan corresponding to constantly monitored Data. While there are a lot of ventilator projects out there, it is crucial to get medical certification at least for one version.
