05 · Research Path

Build the platform. Then measure it.

V1 establishes a functional mechanical architecture. Later iterations add instrumentation and modular experimental controls only when they answer a defined research question.

V1

Functional architecture

Build and demonstrate the complete syringe → valve → chamber → distal head → atomizer pathway.

V2

Instrumented delivery

Add pressure / flow measurement and interchangeable flow-restriction inserts.

V3

Design optimization

Use experimental evidence to evaluate geometry, flow behaviour, targeting and repeatability.

RESEARCH QUESTION

Can a simple mechanical architecture improve the controllability and repeatability of targeted topical spray delivery?

The V1 prototype is built to investigate the question.
