Parag Sheth and Colee Carr have an innovative idea to create a pacemaker that carries a battery that can be recharged through a person’s breathing. “You see,” said Parag animatedly, “There’s energy going from the pacemaker to the heart, but as the person breathes that action is energy that comes into the battery through a tiny wind-driven fan.” Parag is 12-years-old and Colee is 13. Their concept earned the Robot Rangers team top honors Saturday at the FIRST LEGO robot competition for middle school students held at Rowan University.
