First year SMU information systems undergraduate Clarence Ngoh is one of the members of a team which has designed BlackBox, a device that sounds the alarm after a traffic accident. The device, which sends rescuers the driver's pre-registered medical information such as blood type, allergies and medical history, and informs the motorist's relatives of what has happened, has won the top prize in the 24-hour codeXtremeApps hackathon. They beat 61 other teams and won $10,000, as well as two complete computers built on a single circuit board, for their prototype and the innovative use of road and traffic data.
