Featured Projects

Dumbbell FEA and Corrosion Mitigation with SOLIDWORKS

THE GOAL

Develop an environmentally friendly solution to the corrosion of a dumbbell.

Research the manufacturing process and develop a new process that minimizes material waste.

Design an integrated recycled plastic handle that will reduce the corrosion rate without sacrificing the nominal strength of the bar itself.

SUMMARY OF SKILLS

SOLIDWORKS CAD & FEA

Research & Development

Material Science

Mechanic of Deformable Solids (MODS I & II)

Critical Thinking

Teamwork/Collaboration

Engineering Report (Word)

Autonomous Card Dealing Poker Robot

THE GOAL

Create a robot that can deal cards to up to 8 players in a game of poker and deal the 5 'river' cards, both face-up and face-down.

The robot uses C++ pointers and arrays to keep track of each player's balance and decisions so that no chips are required.

This robot successfully makes facilitating a game of poker much easier and efficient.
