Budget Proposal
Our project will mainly be composed of three parts, the needle, the thermal sensor, and the wireless transmission.
We need a hollowed stainless needle which will allow the thermistor to stay inside. Hollow body piercing needles can be found on amazon for 20 dollars. A glass encapsulated thermistor is available from OMEGA for $23, with excellent long-term stability, and a tolerance of ±0.2°C from 0 to 70°C. Multiple thermistor might be needed during the process, hence, we are proposing 80 dollars for this part. Electronics-wise, we need a Bluetooth emitting module and a receiving terminal that enables computer programming. Since we are aiming for a demonstration model, Arduino is the most convenient and cost-effective platform for implementing simple wireless communication. Fortunately, Arduino offers Bluetooth modules integrated with analog to digital converters that come at a price less than $30. The USB-terminal to be plugged onto computer costs less than 20 dollars.
Taking into account some potential costs that could arise from additional trial-and-errors, we are asking from BME department a total budget of 150 dollar.
