Abstract
This paper describes the design and development of a Smart Companion Pillow, named bGuard, designed by a multinational and multidisciplinary team enrolled in the European Project Semester (EPS) at Instituto Superior de Engenharia do Porto (ISEP) in the spring of 2019. Nowadays, parents spend most of the day at work and become naturally worried about the well-being of their young children, specially babies. The aim of bGuard is to provide a 24-hour remotely accessible baby monitoring service, contributing to reduce parenting stress. The team, based on the survey of related products, as well as on marketing, sustainability, ethics and deontology analyses, developed a remotely interactive Smart Companion Pillow to monitor the baby's health and room air quality. The collected data, once it is saved on an Internet of Things (IoT) platform, becomes remotely accessible. The bGuard pillow, thanks to its shape, reduces the risk of the baby rolling from back to tummy, lowering the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).

Abstract
This paper provides an overview of the development of a Sail Car within the European Project Semester (EPS), the international multidisciplinary engineering capstone programme offered by the Instituto Superior de Engenharia do Porto (ISEP). The main goal of EPS@ISEP is to offer a project-based educational experience to develop teamwork, communication, interpersonal and problem-solving skills in an international and multidisciplinary set up. The Sail Car team consisted of six Erasmus students, who participated in EPS@ISEP during the spring of 2019. The objective of the project was to design and develop a wind-powered, easy to drive land sailing vehicle. First, the team researched existing commercial solutions and considered the marketing, ethics and sustainability dimensions of the project. Next, based on these studies, specified the full set of requirements, designed the Sailo solution and procured the components and materials required to build a real size proof-of-concept prototype. Finally, the team assembled and tested successfully the prototype. At the end of the semester, the team considered EPS@ISEP a mind-opening opportunity.
