+veCool- IoT enabled portable active cooling box for sensitive goods

大规模免疫接种计划的挑战给从制造商到最终交付的所有相关人员带来了独特的交付挑战。疫苗和血浆治疗需要在整个过程中保持温度稳定。新冠肺炎的高度传染性使英国估计有150万易受感染的人面临直接风险，为了他们的安全，他们必须保持隔离。第一线工作人员和社区支持服务需要安全地接触到这一群体，让他们有足够的时间建立免疫力，并提供足够的保护，使活动恢复正常。VeCool将开发以下关键属性：*可扩展的紧凑型冷却系统，便于作为个人冷却系统运输*物联网功能，提供丰富的数据流，根据关键性能指标对数千次旅行进行长期分析。*系统具有临时迷你冰箱的双重功能，在当地临时诊所或社区中心需要时允许使用专用冷藏箱。*性能/重量/体积是最大限度降低运输拥有成本的关键标准*一个可以跨英国制造厂扩展的解决方案。VeCool将通过开发基于热电制冷的环保型主动冷却系统来满足这些需求，该系统可快速扩展和部署，为一线工人提供所需的支持工具，提高士气，并使他们能够尽最大努力。VeCool是一个简单的想法，通过它的执行将提供一个一流的解决方案，在最需要的时候可以使用和部署。

The challenge of a mass immunisation programme brings unique delivery challenges to all involved from manufacturers through to final delivery. Vaccines and plasma treatments require temperature stabilisation throughout their journey. The highly infectious nature of COVID-19 puts an estimate 1.5M vulnerable people at immediate risk in the UK and they must remain isolated for their safety.This group needs to be safely reached by front line workers and community support services in their homes allowing sufficient time for immunity to build and provide sufficient protection to allow activity to return to normal.+veCool will develop the following key attributes:* A scalable compact cooling system which is convenient to transport as a personal cooling system* An IoT capability providing data rich stream to provide long term analysis of many thousands of journeys against key performance measures.* A system which has dual function in acting as a temporary mini-fridge when powered to allow dedicated cold box when needed at local temporary clinics, or community centres.* Performance/weight/volume are key criteria to minimise ownership costs for transportation* a solution which can be scaled across manufacturing sites across the UK.+veCool will address these needs by developing an environmentally friendly active cooling system based on thermoelectric cooling which is rapidly scalable and deployable to give front line workers the support tools needed raising morale and allowing them to do their best. +veCool is a simple idea that through it's execution will deliver a superb solution that will be available and deployable in the time when it is most needed.
