A World Away

Your challenge is to identify pandemic social problems that may have collateral effects in remote locations (such as space). How will you prepare for the collateral effects in remote locations, and/or evaluate on-Earth support and remote location risks, including psychological and technical risks?

SupWave

Summary

The current solution - SupWave - can transform the world. Based on the idealization of this idea, it is clear that such a system would manage the base stock and with these data would calculate the daily diet of each member of the group, aiming at physical and mental well-being. Providing a collaborative wave to remote regions, in this case, Antarctica. In addition, SupWave would have an integrated network between nearby registered bases, where such groups could share supplies in emergency cases, both technical and food. And yet, it would offer the user the option of talking to a similar individual, thus keeping the psychological person more calm and serene.

How We Addressed This Challenge

Our proposal fits the challenge “A Distant World” because it proposes a solution in relation to managing the supply of populations in isolated places, such as researchers in Antarctica, and also proposes a response to emergency cases that generate a lack of supply, such as current pandemic situation, this one has the proposal of connecting teams in close places with the objective of cooperation, sharing technical and food supplies. In this way, it is possible to keep researching for longer periods of time and to prevent any problems in the supply of supplies.

How We Developed This Project

The social aspect involved in this project made the team create an empathetic relationship with the proposed challenge and later with the problem found by us, this is the situation of research teams in Antarctica. We sought a realistic and viable approach with this project, starting with the questions of problematization: what would be the problem that these teams encounter? How can we help them? From the answers to these questions, we started to think about the logistics of the solution. We use mind mapping tools, like the “mindmaster”; From mokoup, like “Justmind”; Tools for structuring logistics between the tables that the system would include, such as "Lucidchart"; and also software development tools for the prototype, such as “Madrix”. The main problem involved in the development of the project was the short term, however, we managed to overcome this with a lot of effort from the team.
