Ventilator - DIY Development

Specs are hard to some by  -collating here
I think we will need:
A valve to switch inlet air
A valve to switch outlet air - needs low resistance
A flow sensor (maybe) - to detect how much air has gone in.
A pressure sensor - to detect when a breath has been initiated.


Test 1 - Valve
Can a bunnings irrigation valve switch air?
Answer - Yes
Test detail.  Connected to power supply and could hear the valve open and close.
Blew in and observed it would stop the air or pass it as intended.

Test 2 - Flow Sensor
We have a number of flow sensors at work.
I blew through each one to see what it would be like to breathe through one.

Most of them had too much resistance.
Second from the right with the orange tape was the only one that seemed OK to breathe through.

Need to find out where we got it from.

PEEP is the alveolar pressure above the atmospheric pressure at end-expiration. PEEP applied through mechanical ventilation (i.e., extrinsic PEEP) allows delivery of positive pressure at the end of expiration to prevent unstable lung units from collapsing. Low levels of PEEP (3 to 5 cmH₂O) are routinely used in patients on mechanical ventilation.

Competition

Covid19

Social isolation. I should be used to it. Lonlineness like a heartbeat dives you.

I wonder if after life stabilises, people will look back and say "I stared death in the face... And bought toilet paper"

Here in Oz, the land of rules and signs, we are normally so safe. Every activity so governed by the powers that be. Now we are disempowered by something we can't see. 

Social isolation we are told is the go. 

I'm sure that will help flatten the curve. 

The church, at least the uniting church (& I think most) have descended into mediocrity. Cancelling all services. Fear.

Mind you they could have held services out doors. In the car park or a local park. Have the interpersonal distance to minimise virus spread and have social interaction. Jut just a sweeping cancellation. 

Makes one think. 

I'm not afraid of death but I am afraid of dying. Esp if it's not quite death.

It makes one think.

Perspective. 

I'm like the Ute. Once maybe useful. Now old. Not so strong. Rusty. The new models will have different technologies.

Apart from living in the nanny state, 

It feels like there's no forgiveness. 

You know today we are so fixated on identity, data, history. Every slip up haunts you forever. For those who fall foul of the law, their record stays. For those who get in the media, it's there at the end of a google search. No longer can someone hop on a ship, change their name along the way and start again in a new place.

I just need to actually verify them with my own gear.



In the mean time,
A couple of thoughts on getting started with livestreaming:

FACEBOOK
It's easy to livestream on facebook from a mobile phone with plenty of data.

Can't do from a PC! only from mobile.

Create a "group" and get members to join facebook and join that group.
Then livestream to the group using a mobile phone.
You may need to help oldies to join FB and show them how to access the group.
This is too easy and I do it ll the time live-streaming kids rowing to the Centenary and Brigidine Facebook groups and also live onto my FB feed.


YOUTUBE
You can livestream to youtube
Some old and overly complicated notes here:
https://thomsoneu.blogspot.com/2014/04/streaming-video-to-youtube.html
I live-streamed an easterfest 24 hr prayer and song service one year but cant find a blog entry. I did get a rap over the knuckles from YouTube because between groups, the sound guy put on a CD and YouTube recognised that as a copyright infringement.

I think if I was trying to livestream to youtube, I would download "vmix" I think there is a free version.
https://www.vmix.com/knowledgebase/article.aspx/89/vmix-streaming-to-youtube-live
The advantage of youtube is that it is easier for people to watch because you can just give them a link to the stream.

Getting Video into a PC
Analogue - Get a analogue to USB converter.  <$100 at JB HIFI
you can see an example of my one here:
https://thomsoneu.blogspot.com/2013/08/oxley-ss-play-green-room-video.html
It was called a "dazzle" but any analogue - USB device will probably work.
(This shows I am livin' in the past)

Digital  TBA
USB?
HDMI->USB  See "HDMI Capture", below.
Can we do wifi from a phone?
ethernet from a security camera?
Obviously SDI from a pro camera to a blackmagic SDI->USB or a desktop card is the way the pro's do it.



HDMI Capture
Note all out-of-stock.   Like toilet paper I guess.

ANDROID AS CAMERA
Droidcam
www.dev47apps.com
Download the windows client.
Ran it.  Cant connect by USB.  But no faq on their web site.

It does work over wifi.  The picture at the top left is from my phone

Make DroidCam work on USB
Get the windows drivers
https://developer.samsung.com/mobile/android-usb-driver.html
Activate developer mode on the phone.
Even when I have the Android phone connected by USB, the picture ends up with a minute or so of lag.


ENCODER
Download Open Broadcaster
https://obsproject.com/

Youtube
1. Verify Account
https://www.youtube.com/verify
2. Open Youtube Studio
https://studio.youtube.com/

Get a key.  It's at the the left.  Keep it secret

Paste it into the Open boroardcaster software

Adding a Camera ie Media Source to OBS
https://streamshark.io/obs-guide/adding-webcam

So I get it to stream.  Once.
But I don't think our ADSL here at work has enough upstream bandwidth.

A few days ago I filled in a form to "cancel" the booking and credit my travel bank.
This has not shown up in my travel bank.

I tried calling Virgin on 13 67 89 but received a announcement advising that Philippines call centre was off line and further on I get "Our call centres are unavailable to receive calls"
Trying again
https://apps.virginaustralia.com/booking-cancellation/
I tried the app.  Manage booking.  Can not find any reference to travel bank.

2:14pm Spoke to Female (did not get name)  She located the booking and confirmed that $660 going into my travel bank for use within 12 months.

Air Tickets - Down
I am thinking of flying down on Saturday  21 so I can be social.

Could even go Friday night the 20th.

(from webjet) On Saturday morning, the first flight out of Brisbane is Qantas at 5:00am $144
Virgin start up at 6:00 $139.  Qantas then are around $194 with Virgin at 6:35 $139 again.
jetstar have their first flight at 6:50am $116 and Tiger 6:55am $112

If we look at Friday afternoon.  Virgin are $165.  3:05pm, 4:04pm,5:05pm
Qantas $194.  Tiger have $122 at 2:15 & 4:55.  Jetstar 5:30pm $153.

I'm only considering the checked baggage tickets because we will be gone for a week and I assume we should take some luggage.  Although now that i think about it, one could put ones luggage in a plastic box on the trailer.


Accommodation
Ended up making a booking on airbnb.  Apparently if you connect to airbnb by this link you get a discount.
