Team members: Mike Gould Kara McMillen Marcus Pearlman Chris Sinkey Jake Wiltgen We are building a Radio Frequency Location System for industrial and residential applications. The design consists of a linearly polarized 2.5GHz transmitter which will be tracked using three, directional finding antennas. These directional finding antennas consist of an...

Team members: Mike Chao Tae Lee Josh Reitsema Mark Winter Scott Zhong The purpose of the tank style rover is to provide a suitable base for a multitude of sensors that can be used for a variety of applications including reconnaissance, data mining, security, etc. The project goal is to...

Team members: Sammit Adhya Matt Corne Thaine Hock Luz Quinonez The goal of our project will be to design and build the controlling electronics for a six-axis robotic arm that can be controlled through the use of simple finger motions. The purpose of the project would be to create an...

Team members: Mir Ziyad Ali Liron Kopinsky Chris Wallace Sarah Whildin Joseph Yadgar For our capstone project we will design an energy tracking system that will position solar panels in order to get maximum power. We will store the energy into batteries and use it to power the rest of...

Team members: Ali Ozgur Abali Leonardo Carrasco David Cox Randy Direen Lisa Prince We propose to build an autonomous robot with the capability of mapping out its surroundings. The robot we plan to build will have the capability of mapping out its environment using ultrasonic vision, and build a 2-D...

Team members: Steven Anderson Casey Gold Tom Monikowski Ellen Prommersberger Nathan Winder We intend to modify a small-scale vehicle, go-cart or RC vehicle, that can be activate an auto-pilot mode for certain driving conditions. Our finished product will be able to perform driving duties in stop-and-go traffic, controlling the throttle,...

Team members: Justin Bewley Winter Jojola Florence Manega Paul Roberts Denknesh Temesgen Our project is designed for people with disabilities that inhibit them from performing complex tasks, such as, opening a door, or turning on a light. Given a room with various objects, depending on the direction the user is...

Team members: Kevin Landin Greg Russo John Sample Michael Sells Jason Taylor The goal of our group is to build an mp3 player that has compact flash storage capabilities and an LCD display. We would like to be able to read mp3 tags and be able to display this information...

Team Members: Mir Minhaz Ali Robin Elliott Greg Newcomb Wilfredo Oteromatos An important medical device in use today is the bronchoscope, a tool invented by the German laryngologist, Dr. Gustav Killian, in 1895 and adapted by Dr. Chavalier Jackson, regarded as the father of bronchoscopy. A modern bronchoscope consists of...

Team members: April Lewis Aaron Martin Steven Sherk he objective is to build a general purpose microprocessor using the XCV300 FPGA board and Verilog. The 16 bit RISC will be created using MIPS design as a foundation. The processor will use state machine principles: fetch, decode, execute, read, and write...
