Within 33 hours a team of 15 ETH engineers created a first prototype of a fully automatic and touch free system to enable mass testing on Covid-19. The system consists of a Dispenser, which dispenses the test kit to a customer after scanning the ETH card. The test kit needs to be cooled while stored in the Dispenser.
After the self-test is done, it can be returned to the Collector. The Covid-19 test is directly put in a sample rack that fits the pooling machine at the Nexus Personalized Health Technologies Lab at ETH Zürich. All participants were tested negative on the novel coronavirus in advance.
This Hackathon was the kickstart for the product development process that is ongoing as part of the CovMass initiative at ETH Zürich.
