I’m contributing to an open-source, open-architecture auricular vagus nerve stimulator project that’s being developed collaboratively through a distributed model. The team is coordinating on GitHub, and I’m involved as a contributor
This project was completed as part of my guided reading on Robots for Disability and demonstrates an approach to controlling a robotic hand using MyoWare EMG sensors. By detecting muscle activity, the system interprets the intensity of muscle flexing and translates it into real-time movements of a robotic hand. I might be late to the party, with startups like Psyonic, Esko Bionics, and Esper Bionics already leading the way in this field, but working on this project was an invaluable learning experience!
This project amalgamates the capabilities of Raspberry Pi 4B and Arduino Uno microcontrollers to create an innovative maze-solving robot.Utilizing OpenCV for image processing and implementing breadth-first search algorithms on the Raspberry Pi, the system intelligently navigates the ball towards the maze’s exit. By employing two servos controlled by the Arduino, the project orchestrates the movement of a ball through complex mazes

Abstract:
“SonarDuino” is an innovative project that delves into the realm of robotics, specifically focusing on creating a 360-degree radar system for object detection. The project aims to enhance the capabilities of locomotion robots by providing them with the ability to detect the boundaries of their surroundings. This project demonstrates the use of an ultrasonic sensor as a SOund NAvigation and Ranging equipment with the use of an Arduino Mega for processing and collecting data. Visualization of objects detected by the system is presented through a GUI (replicating a SONAR scanning system).
An in-depth analysis was conducted on the cooling performance of gas turbine blades. The focus of the study was on blades modeled using the NACA 65 series. The primary objective was to assess and optimize the cooling efficiency through the manipulation of various key parameters, including material composition, cross-sectional design, number of cooling holes, and the type of cooling fluid employed.
I designed a control arm inspired by outdoor ATV applications, where durability and stiffness are critical. Since control arms in vehicles must be very stiff and not act like springs, I set the performance expectation to deflections in the tenth-of-a-millimeter range.
