## Overview

This LibreRespire ventilator is organized in to two main components. This section
mainly focused on the vBOX, the heart of the LibreRespire system.

- vBOX
- The ventilator box which houses the main controllers and sensors and can functions
independent of the gas delivery system, vAIR.

- vAIR
- The ventilator air delivery system is responsible for the delivery of medical
air and oxygen to the vBOX.

The main emphasis and development effort is focused on the vBOX. The goal is to
develop the vBOX to be couple with any standard gas delivery system such as wall
air, cylinders, compressors. bellows and pistons.

## Objective

The main driving concept behind the LibreRespire development is its modular design
which can be tailored to the individual needs and can easily experimented, debugged
and improved.

## Design

The vBOX is divided in to 6 modules.
- iMixingUnit
- Responsible for medical air and oxygen mixing to maintain a given FiO<sub>2</sub>.
Currently FiO<sub>2</sub> needs to be set manually.
- Issue tracker.
* [ ] Automate FiO<sub>2</sub> setting.
* [ ] Select appropriate oxygen sensor.
* [ ] Integrate oxygen sensor.
* [ ] Improve physical design.

- iVenturiUnit
- Responsible for sensing the pressure difference and flow rates in the control
loop during inspiration. Operates on bernoulli's principle and allows the flow
rate to be calculated independent of a separate flow sensor.
- Issue tracker.
* [ ] Selection of a single differential pressure sensor.
* [ ] Improve physical design.

- iControlUnit
- The main inspiratory output. Houses the emergency valve and the one way valve.
- Issue tracker.
* [ ] Select appropriate rupture disk to act as the emergency valve.
* [ ] Decide on the cost effectiveness of a separate flow sensor.
* [ ] Optimize one way valve.
* [ ] Standardize output port.

- eControlUnit
- The main port of entry of the expiratory limb. Houses one way valve and the
main flow sensor.
Issue tracker.
* [ ] Select appropriate flow sensor.

- eVenturiUnit
- Act to control the expiratory flow and calculate the pressure difference and the
expiratory flow rates.
- Issue tracker.
* [ ] Selection of a single differential pressure sensor.

- ePEEPControl
- Currently controlled by the off the shelf manual PEEP valve.
- Issue tracker.
* [ ] Development of a electronically controlled PEEP valve.
* [ ] Validation of the electronically controlled PEEP valve.

The design of the ventilator is based on the minimum standards published by the British government [here](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-ventilator-supply-specification/rapidly-manufactured-ventilator-system-specification)


##Objectives
## Objectives

- Design a ventilator composed of mechanical components freely available to most
- Design a ventilator composed of mechanical components freely available in most
regions of the world.
- Design a ventilator without the use of a Bellow or a “Bag”, which is either not
available or limited in number in an emergency situation.

This functions as the brain of the LibreRespire, and tailors the output to the
user specified settings based on sensory input.

## Objective

However this section focuses on development of vAIR, the LibreRespire gas air delivery
system which currently is based on commercially available diaphragm pump. We
intend to build efficient, cost effective and easily sourced driving mechanism for
the vBOX.
