Every year each team has to do a research and service project to tell your community about a current problem. This year's theme is about Biomedical Engineering.
Biomedical Engineering means - "Biomedical engineering is the application of engineering principles and techniques to the medical field. This field seeks to close the gap between engineering and medicine. It combines the design and problem solving skills of engineering with medical and biological sciences to improve healthcare diagnosis and treatment."- Wikipedia
So after so brainstorming, research, and building consensus, we found our topic, and we came up with obesity! We are going to try to find a way for people to know how much food they eat and how much they burn! So you eat 2000 calories a day but you burn only 1500 of them! That's weight gained! So we want to invent an easier way to measure how many calories you eat and how many you burn so you know exactly how much you can eat!
