Fidget Spinner

Spring 2022

  • Designed a unique fidget spinner toy using Solid Works and utilized Fusion 360 for the creation of a machine path G code based on set tools for metal molds
  • Utilized injection molding with polypropylene pellets to create a fidget spinner body and additive manufacturing to manufacture the bearing caps
  • Showcased the design process in an engineering report that showcases all aspects of design organized via problem, objective, and detailed documentation

Windmill

Fall 2023

  • The objective of this project is to design a circuit that takes mechanial energy and turns it into electrical energy
  • Using three seperate logic controllers, LEDs will turn on based on the fan setting of low, medium, and high
  • Designed an indicator circuit as well as a circuit rectifier in Multisim and constructed it using a bread board and Arduino microcontroller
  • Created and 3-D printed a unique base design for our windmill to provide stability and avoid tipping over when the propeller was turned on
  • The video demo can be found here

Automated Plant Care System

Fall 2024

  • Designed and developed an automated plant care system with a budget constraint of $250, ensuring cost-effectiveness and user-friendliness
  • Implemented automation for essential plant care tasks such as watering, fertilizing, and lighting adjustment
  • Conducted customer needs analysis to identify key product qualities and compare them with existing solutions
  • Defined engineering requirements and specifications based on customer needs for adaptable, safe, and intuitive operation
  • Utilized the House of Quality (HoQ) analysis to translate customer needs into specific technical features
