Two Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA) Engineering
Undergraduates, Taofeek Olalekan Afeez and Alayande Abdulwaheed Abiola have emerged winners of
this year’s Imagine Cup National Finals in Nigeria.
The two undergraduates of Physics Electronics & Electrical Electronics who jointly formed TEAM TREP
presented a solution called Real Drip - a device that reduces the risk of blood clot or deep vein
thrombosis.
The non-invasive device monitors the flow of intravenous fluid during IV treatment and notifies medical
staff in real time. The device monitors the rate at which intravenous fluid drops (flow rate) and notifies
the medical staff on duty in real time, for the timely removal of intravenous needle to prevent back flow
of blood which may lead to pulmonary embolism if necessary action is not taken on time.
Now in its 16 th year, Imagine Cup, aims to give young developers the opportunity to acquire new and
critical technical, business and team-building skills — all while having fun along the way.
