Future studies include gaining secondary student and teacher input of the project as further developmentoccurs. The E-Dragster Challenge is a student-centered project and therefore it makes sense to continue gainingstudent input to maintain relevancy to the goals of pre-college engineering education partnerships.

TENG powered pacemakers havebeen of great interest due to their biomedical properties for greatly benefiting the life and healthof both humans and animals. The battery life of these traditional implantable often only last afew years. They have to be surgically replaced after that via invasive procedures, which posegreat risks to the patients and a significant cost to the healthcare system.
