A
When I was four,my grandfather suddenly got lost
in a park one day.It was the first instance that informed
us that he had Alzheimer's disease(阿尔茨海默病).
Over the past 12 years,his worsening condition and his
wandering have been worrying us.My aunt struggled to
stay awake at night to watch over him,but often failed.
Concemed about my aunt's well-being and my
grandfather's safety,I searched widely for a solution,
but in vain.
Then two years ago,while looking after my
grandfather,I was impressed by the moment when his
foot landed on the floor.Why don't I put a pressure
sensor on the bottom of his foot?Once he stepped onto
the floor and out of the bed,the pressure sensor would
detect an increase in pressure caused by body weight
and then wirelessly send an alarm to the caregiver's
smartphone.My desire to create a sensor-based technology
was born.
When laying out my plan,I faced three main
challenges.First,I had to create a wearable sensor.
After testing different materials like rubber,which was
too thick,I decided to print a film sensor with pressure-
sensitive ink particles ()Next,I had to design a
wearable wireless circuit.Thankfully,I was able to find
out about the Bluetooth low energy technology,which
consumes little power and can be driven by a coin-sized
battery.Lastly,I learned to code(编码)a smartphone
app to turn the caregiver's smartphone into a remote
monitor.
Integrating these components,I successfully created
two models:a built-in sock sensor and a re-attachable
one.Having tested it on my grandfather with 100%
success in detecting his wandering,I beta-tested it at
California care facilities last summer.Now,I'm using
response from tests to improve it into a marketable
product.
One thing Ill never forget is when my device first
caught my grandfather's wandering at night.At that
moment,I was really struck by the power of technology
to change lives for the better.

For the past 11 years,83-year-old Al Merritt has
been a reliable and cheerful presence in his neighborhood.
Since 2010,Al Merritt has been trying to achieve
the mission to cycle the circumference (of the
Earth-24,901 miles-without ever leaving his own
neighborhood.As a result,Al Merritt got to know many
of his neighbors.Up until October 24.2021,he never
realized that his daily bicycle trips were as important to
them as they were to him.
At 3 p.m.,nearly 200 people gathered near his
home to surprise and congratulate Al Merritt on the
ending of his "round-the-world"adventure,and a large
trophy(奖杯)was placed in his arms.“It's just
unbelievable.I couldn't have imagined anything like
this,”he said.
Eleven years ago,when his son Kevin brought a
bike,Al Merritt started cycling around.At first,his
rides were about five miles long,then 10 to 12 miles,
and gradually the length of his outings grew.As time
went by,he began to think big-the circumference of
the Earth.By the end of 2020,he had covered 21,565
miles in total and knew he could complete his goal by
the end of 2021.
There was no celebration of the goal planned until
Natalie London and Taylor Plecity came along.They
