Nanomachine Detecting Microbiotics
History once tells antibiotics were invincible knights, until a fierce dragon befalled.
The dragon named RESISTANCE is the answer for the knights' enemy. The formerly mighty knights cannot defeat their enemy, their ghosts now potentially bring crisis to the world. Thus, this year, the team USTC invented new heroes trying to save the antibiotics contamination caused by the war.
CACCI
To solve the resistance problem, we recruit CACCI to aid our knights. CACCI's engineered bacteria that are attached to a membrane have the chemotaxis ability, which means CACCI's fantastic membrane have the ability to perform a deformation corresponding to the contribution of the antibiotics. Then it's time for CACCI's optics magic. Using the interference, the knights' amount can be certained.Then we are able to redeploy our knights, making them efficiently kill the enemy rather than strengthen them.
SPRING
Spring, which is named after its inventer, is CACCI's sidekick. He helps CACCI in three aspects, which are the optical aspect, the hardware aspect and the software aspect. Using Michelson Interferometer,the optical part, Spring transforms the shape change of CACCI's membrane into the change of interference fringe. Spring's hardware, based on Raspberry–Pi, allows spring to take photos or videos of the fringe. At last, the software can analyse them and transmit the results to PC. CACCI depends on Spring.
ROSE
Meanwhile, we recruit ROSE to ensure our success. Two kinds of engineered bacteria make ROSE a wonderful director. Her mind is sufficiently logical, just like those three circuits we bulit for her,which allow her to know how many antibiotics are out of there,even when there are just trace of them. With the data provided by ROSE, the same mission as CACCI's can be done. Although ROSE may be a little slower than CACCI, but her traditional way becomes our insurance.
