For my senior design project, we were working on a non-invasive vascular stiffness monitor, we were prototyping on bread board, which connected to a an ossciliscope for data analysis. Half way through our project we realized that the breadboard had areas with corrosion, thus effecting our connected sensors and our results. Based on our timeline, we were suppose to test our device on possible patients if we could simplify the circuit and design. With a half yr wasted on bad data, were only able to replace the bread board and redo our tests, and unfortunately we were not able to test our device on patients/people, but we were able to just recover adequate data to present for our final presentation. We were not expecting this setback, during the project.
