Abstract
Our goal for our project was to provide a product that could help people with respiratory problems and people concerned about pollutants. The pollutant part was inspired by the power plant emission spread affecting our town. Around 33 billion tons of CO2 are emitted every year, so as we researched and brainstormed, we came up with a mobile air purification integration system. We discussed designs and took measurements so that we cad components for the system. Once we cadded all the components, we 3d printed them and utilized them to make a system that will purify the air of the environment you're enclosed in.

Introduction
We hope to improve the health of people with respiratory problems and people who are concerned with pollutants who both would like to be mobile. We are going to learn how to tackle problems of pollutants through machinery by making a mobile air purifier system.
Background
As we researched, we came across a university with a prototype of a device similar to our idea. The prototype was built at the Aichi Institute of Technology in Japan. We found that their prototype utilizes a UV-C filter for purifying the air instead of HEPA or Ionic. Through the discovery of the UV-C filter, I was able to discover the identity of other filters that would help in determining what would be cost-effective and best to use. Our work is different as we will be using a HEPA filter instead of UV-C, and it will be a more customized system.

Procedures
Research/Marketing
Brainstorm ideas for a project(We learned how to brainstorm effectively and compromise)
Once the idea is chosen, do extensive research about related subjects(We learned how to do deep research into multiple subjects)
Research the idea to find out how to apply it in marketing. (We learned how to sell an idea as a product)
Organize a presentation for the sake of marketing to other students. ( We learned how to organize information into a presentation)
Present marketing presentation to students. ( We learned how to pitch ideas to either gain stockholders or sell to others)
Design
Take measurements of the Roomba and air purifier and the necessary functions of such devices. (We learned how to accurately take measurements from an engineering standpoint)
Utilize the measurements in designing a system for the Roomba and air purifier(We learned how to apply measurements in designing a component)
Once the design is done, have it printed in a 3-d printer using PETG filament. ( We learned how to design components through CAD and to print from a 3-d printer)
Once all parts are printed, fit the Roomba and purifier with the system to test the design(We learned how to make a system and equip it on to another)
Testing
1. Use the air quality analyzer to test the Roomba for a baseline. ( We learned how to establish a baseline and how to set up an air quality analyzer)
2. Place the assembled Roomba in the center of the room ( We learned the importance of location in applying it to testing)
3. Set up the air quality analyzer in the closest outlet to the center of the room. ( We learned the importance of location in applying it to testing)
4. Run the Roomba and purifier and test how it moves with the system in place and analyze the sturdiness of the pieces while testing the purity of the air(We learned how to analyze multiple types of data at the same time)
Results
The objectives were accomplished well across all three tests. The improvements that are hoped for in the future are mainly designed in the aspects of filament/material. We feel that this project can at the least help people who have respiratory problems breathe a little healthier through our project and help people who care about the environment. We feel that we may improve on the project in the future beyond the class. The results match the purpose of what we're aiming for in air quality and durability.
Conclusion
Throughout this project, We’ve learned what it means to be an engineer and how to market, design, test, and improve a product. This product is made for people who have respiratory problems, but can fit a niche in the market of environmentalists.
