The PolyVent is an open source mechanical ventilator meant for research and education. It prioritizes openness, modularity, repairability, and modifiability. An ESP32 microcontroller controls a proportional valve which precisely modulates pressure and flow from a mixing chamber into the airway. This chamber is fed with pressurized oxygen and medical air. Solenoid valves control both gas mixing and patient inflation. The PolyVent is controllable through a command-line interface over the serial port, a convenient point of access for researchers and instructors.
