From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Raymond Wang (February 4, 1998) is a young inventor who was born in Vancouver, Canada, and currently resides in Massachusetts.[1] Raymond invented a way to curb disease transmission in aircraft cabins, to help stop the next disease epidemic. He served as a Senior Editor on the International Student Editorial Board of the Journal of Student Science and Technology. Raymond Wang is one of Canada’s Top 20 and the recipient of the prestigious Gordon E. Moore award for the Top Project at the 2015 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. Wang spend his time exploring STEM and promoting global sustainability.[2]

Education[edit]

Raymond Wang is a Canadian and Harvard University undergraduate who is studying science and engineering .[3] He studied previously at St. George's School for boys. He is also a young entrepeneur, passionate about science, technology and engineering. He has recently won the Gordon E. Moore award for the Top Project at the 2015 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. [4]

Recognition[edit]

His latest innovations like the Aircraftt Cabin Airflow and his inventions of the “Weather Harvester”, “Smart Knee Assistant” and “Smart Bin”, he has achieved international recognition and was provided the opportunity to present his innovations in TED Talks and IEEE’s Spectrum Podcast. Raymond Wang has participed twice in TED Talk’s, the first one in 2012 and the second in 2015. Wang was Canada’s representative on an international scientific exchange to China, and is a senior editor on the International Student Editorial Board 13 of the Canadian Young Scientist Journal.[5] His corporation “Ryan Corp” has been active since 2015 and it includes renewable energy, biomechanics, and environmental management.

Wang innovation[edit]

Raymond has founded a non- profit organization called “Sustainable Youth Canada” which aims to empower young people in affiliated regions established from coast to coast to be leaders by analyzing issues with environmental and energy sustainability.[6] Wang's first project was a roof that converted the impact energy of precipitation into electricity to help power the home. The following year, he came up with a dynamically supportive knee brace that implements smart fluids to vary the amount of support that patients received, depending on the physical activity. After that he created a self-cleaning outdoor garbage bin to tackle the issue of urban sanitation in our neighborhoods. Besides all the projects that he had developed, the one who has created an impact was the last one, the one who helped win the 2015 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, out of 1,700 students nationally selected from 75 or more countries.[7] The winning project was a system which improves the availability of fresh air in the cabin by more than 190 per cent while reducing pathogen inhalation concentrations by up to 55 times, compared to conventional designs. Wang says the device could be implemented overnight and save the airline industry billions of dollars.[8]
