Eye Contact with a Digital Twin?
Silicon Valley Young Scholars
Using an AI Co-pilot to provide Social Training System with Your Digital Twin
Junkfish Chess Engine
University of California, San Diego
How up tight are you? University students share a hands-on demo of how stress shows up in brain waves!
Power Tag
University of California, San Diego
A versatile, chargeable power bank for mobile devices equipped a GPS tracking feature accessible through a Kotlin mobile app. Users can monitor the location of their device & luggage through a mobile app we will develop for this project, utilizing HTTPs API calls and GSM communication for connecting to the internet without the need for a physical Wi-Fi router.
Sunscreen Recommender
University of California, San Diego
A recommendation system that reads the ambient UV from the sun to recommend what SPF of sunscreen you should use.
Tritons RCSC
University of California, San Diego
Small autonomous soccer-playing holonomic drive robots
Quadcopter Sunshine
University of California, San Diego
A quadcopter built using a custom PCB and firmware
Near-IR FPV Drone Camera Night Vision
University of California, Santa Barbara
A clone build of the popular BPNVG (Bootleg Panoramic Night Vision Goggles) project, with very minimal modifications made by myself / IEEE. It uses night-flying first-person-view (FPV) drone cameras that are built to accept near-IR light (basically a phone camera with no IR filter & a much wider aperture), and uses two pairs of simple Adafruit NTSC displays to give the user a relatively wide FOV.
Smart Lamp
University of California, Santa Barbara
A simple 3D printed lamp with an ultrasonic sensor at the top that serves as the input device, allowing the lamp to be turned on and off & for gestures to control the brightness and pattern of the LEDs on the LED strip that wraps around the base.
Development of a low cost hearing screening device for newborns
IEEE EPICS and Olin College of Engineering
A low cost hearing screening device for newborns that will primarily target community members in Guatemala. Currently, in Guatemala, there is only one audiologist in the entire country. This creates a situation where most newborns cannot be screened for hearing loss and their families find out much later in life. By creating a lower cost hearing screening device that is easy to use for community members, we can increase access to early hearing screenings. These low cost hearing screening devices could also find use in other programs that do not have the funding to buy DPOAE hearing screening devices but are required to do early hearing screenings, such as the Head Start program in the U.S.
MindVoice: EEG-Enhanced Voice Assistance for Older Adults
IEEE EPICS and University at Buffalo
A wearable brain-computer interface (BCI) device to enhance automatic speech recognition for elderly individuals and speech-impaired people. By leveraging low-cost brainwave technologies, such as electroencephalogram (EEG), and innovations in deep learning, the system can better interpret elders' intentions through brain activity and speech. The device, designed to resemble a familiar hearing aid, allows seniors to control home appliances and communicate with loved ones easily. Compared to robot-based solutions, this approach offers an accessible and affordable alternative to improving the quality of life of the elderly.
Wireless, RF, Analog Project (WRAP)
University of California, Los Angeles
Students in WRAP work to develop a wireless receiver and transmitter system, including both the communication protocol and its hardware implementation, completely from scratch. On the hardware side, project members create amplifiers, buffers, and other modules from the transistor level, and on the software side, members implement digital signal processing techniques to complete both sides of the system.
Pocket Racers
University of California, Los Angeles
Students in Pocket Racers work to design a car that autonomously navigates through its surroundings using video data from its camera. Project members learn about machine learning and computer vision, implementing a convolutional neural network on a Raspberry Pi.
Digital Design, Architecture, and Verification (DDAV)
University of California, Los Angeles
One of our more advanced projects where we teach students about digital circuit design and programming FPGAs. Students learn SystemVerilog and implement various modules to eventually pursue one of two capstone tracks: a digital audio visualizer that takes in audio signal from a microphone and displays its frequency spectrum on a VGA display or a video game with controller interfacing. We will be showcasing students' capstones, including a rendition of Pac-Man.
Micromouse
University of California, Los Angeles
Micromouse is a project where teams of students work to design a mouse that can solve a maze. Students learn fundamentals of PCB design, embedded programming, and algorithms. Our showcased project will be past students' mice solving a maze.
Open Project Space (OPS)
University of California, Los Angeles
Our yearlong project focused on providing an introduction to electrical engineering for students that don't have much practical experience or are curious to see what electrical engineering entails. OPS covers a vast range of concepts from basic circuitry, breadboarding and soldering all the way to microcontrollers and embedded programming. The projects showcased are a variety of Arduino and circuits projects that our students have completed throughout the years.
LostFound
Washington State University"
The project addresses an important issue on Washington State University’s campus: locating lost belongings. This cross-platform system offers a convenient and efficient way for over 16,000 active students to find and report lost items on campus, utilizing a custom image recognition model. The technology stack includes React Native, Firebase, TensorFlow, and Google Vision.
Power Electronics Educational Kit
University Of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
An educational kit using two Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) with complementary MOSFETs to create and alter electrical signals. The PCBs can be configured in various ways to produce different signals on an oscilloscope.
Power Liftgate
California State University, Long Beach
Our project implements automotive industrial components to lift open and close a door frame. Components consist of industrial microcontroller, h-bridge driver, and hall effect sensors.
Hydration Station
Arizona State University
Downtown Phoenix, a desert city with 120° days and little to no rain for months at a time, can leave even the most experienced citizens dehydrated and desperate for shelter. The unhoused community in Downtown Phoenix lacks the amenities for property sanitation and hydration year-round. For upwards of 10,000 people, living through the deadly Phoenix summers without adequate shelter has left them particularly vulnerable to both dehydration and heat-induced illnesses. City officials have tried to combat this by providing the homeless one-time-use plastic water bottles. While this initiative provides instantaneous relief to a pressing situation, it can be expensive and inefficient. We will be working with Amy Schwabenlender as our community partner to develop the Hydration Station - a design that will sanitize and refill reusable plastic water bottles.
