BACOLOD CITY – Three graduating students of Southland College in Kabankalan City, Negros Occidental have invented a device that can access the digital world sustainably and eco-friendly.
RESEARCHERS Wesley Hans Platil, Genefredrich Bayor, and Jaspher Valiao invent a Wi-Fi vending machine that converts plastic bottles for internet access at Southland College in Kabankalan City, Negros Occidental.
The three classmates-turned-co-researchers began conceptualizing the project last June. However, they almost gave up along the way due to time and financial constraints.Aside from this, Platil said that it was also challenging to train the system for data accuracy. It was among the projects that were displayed in an exhibit at the City Mall Kabankalan from April 22 to 26.
The school said that this project showcases the power of technology to address environmental and social issues, highlighting the importance of innovation in creating a more sustainable and connected world. Jonah Navarro of the school’s Community Involvement and Extension Services said they have available equipment for plastic bottles to be processed.
