COVID-19 DETECTION DEVICE
COVID-19 Design Competition Spring 2020
During the Spring of 2020, my teammate and I decided to enter the COVID-19 Solution Challenge offered at BU. We were tasked to create a solution to any problem that COVID-19 presents. After a long brainstorming session, we decided to create a wearable device that would alert the person if they became close to touching their face, thus catalyzing a change in behavior. We were awarded second place for our accomplishments.
INTERACTIVE LIGHT GAME
Lutron Lighting Competition Spring 2022
My teammate and I entered the Lutron Lighting Competition offered at BU in the spring of 2022. Our task was to create anything with light and would be judged based on certain categories and the judge’s discretion. We chose to make an interactive game called “The Race to Graduation” which tested reaction time using 2 Arduinos (C++), LEDs, and buttons. We were awarded third place prize for our accomplishments.
PULSE OXIMETER
Engineering Design Class Fall 2020
The goal of this project was to design a device that measures oxygen saturation in arterial blood in order to detect lung damage due to Covid-19. It was an independent project through my Engineering Design class where I used C++ through the Arduino Uno. The end product was a prototype that effectively measures the subject's SpO2 levels as well as their heart rate.
TRUSS DESIGN
Engineering Mechanics Class Fall 2020
We were tasked to design a Truss with the highest load-to-cost ratio within given specifications. We first developed a program using MATLAB to calculate this ratio and determine how much weight it could hold without buckling. We then tested this program using a simple Truss and the material given to ensure our program was accurate with real material. Finally, we tested out different designs to chose the optimal one and tested our final design using the class simulator. We were awarded second place for our accomplishments.
CAT VS DOG CLASSIFICATION
Probability, Statistics, and Data Science for Engineers Spring 2020
Created an Image Classification script in MATLAB to identify if an image provided is a dog or a cat. I did this in a couple of different ways including a binary classification function, nearest neighbor classifier, and linear discriminant analysis.
MATLAB DATA ANALYSIS
Introduction to MATLAB Fall 2019
This project was aimed at discovering a relationship between the prevalence of diabetes and healthcare using a given data set working in a group of 3. We first scrubbed the data by eliminating all insufficient and repeated data. We then used Machine Learning through MATLAB to discover a relationship and write about what we found.
