== Concept ==
Mitch Altman proposed a Global Hackerspace Challenge and PS:One accepted. We proposed the construction of an array of biosensors which could be used
in a secondary school or college setting as an educational and experimental tool. The array will collect data from various sensors attached to
the test subject's body and then make that data available to the experimenter. The project will use as many COTS parts as possible. The terms
of the Challenge require that it use a microcontroller and a "portable power source".
The full description of the Challenge is at [http://www.tvbgone.com/downloads/hs_challenge/hs_challenge.htm Global Hackerspace Challenge].
A $900 Paypal budget will be provided by element14.
The only thing required, by the rules, to buy from [http://us.element14.com/ element14] are the microcontroller and the portable power supply.
