E1.09 - Heat Island Kartographic Environment
H.I.K.E. - Heat Island Kartographic Environment.
Sponsor: Ingram School of Engineering
Student Team: Jeremy Hester, Leigh Cross, Jack Hotchkiss, Samuel Osagie
Faculty Advisor: Mr. Lee Hinkle
Our product is a portable data logger that measures temperature, humidity, and location for heat map generation. It will be lightweight, affordable, and mountable on a backpack while a user is walking around. Using our device, city planners can identify hot-spots to integrate solutions for heat dispersal to build heat-conscious cities. This grows increasingly relevant, as per the EPA, excessive heat is responsible for increased energy consumption and decreased public health.
