Overall project

Bacterial counter as the safety device!!

We’re inspired by double-click of computer’s mouse.
It doesn’t react by first input but react by second input.
So we designed bacterial DNA sequence which works like it.
Furthermore, we built time-limit in genetic sequence between the first and the second input like a computer mouse.
Bacteria which have the DNA sequence can distinguish between the first input and the second one.
Once in a while, bacteria might receive input which wasn’t intended.
But it was the first input so bacteria don’t react.
Even if there was input not intended, bacteria don’t react unless the second input is entered.
Moreover, when the limit-time which controlled by the genetic system is passed, the system is going to return to the initial state.
So we expect this DNA sequence will work as a safety device.
