As the year has progressed, my junior year I2 project—Shuffle Boards—has developed and grown. Currently, I have designed my game boards and game cards, and I am in the process of testing, ordering, and finalizing the project. Once this is done, I need to create my instructions, and I will have a finished game as […]
After many months of taking volleyball statistics for the varsity girl’s volleyball team, I have decided to create a handheld controller with many buttons to make taking stats quicker and easier. During the girl’s season, I used an iPad with the SoloStats app to take statistics, and although this app is generally easy to use, […]
My initial plan for this project was to create a code that simplifies the philosophy created by Dr. Kawashima; doing simple problems every day can help train your brain to build better communication and memory skills (among others). I also planned to test this website with a couple of candidates to prove whether this process […]
One way I have revised my initial project is that I’ve decided to focus more on the environment than just on bees. I think it would be irresponsible of me to do all of this work and get bee hives for the school for me to just graduate and not have anyone to continue the […]
My i2 project previously was to make a kit for converting a normal bike into an electric bike with i2 students Brandon Holland and Rylan Gutierrez. We realized this project may be too difficult and cost too much money so we decided to just convert one of our normal bikes into an electric bike. For […]
I have refined my initial project idea, and I am now conducting interviews with various individuals involved in the biotechnology industry. I have asked them about their college and career paths in order to get a better understanding of how universal the biotechnology industry can be. They have shared personal insights and advice to viewers […]
Since my last blog post, my group and I have decided on a project idea and made considerable progress. My junior project is developing insoles that contain piezoelectric crystals that allow the wearer to convert the kinetic energy from walking into electrical energy that can charge a portable battery pack, which can then charge a […]
My project is going really well, although there were quite a few obstacles along the way. My initial idea for this project was to build a grand escape room for people to test out. What I didn’t realize at first was that it was not going to be possible for me to build a life-sized […]
Today I began organizing the Informed Shopping website. I’ve been using Webflow and it is proving a bit more challenging than I anticipated. I have had to make some design changes, so the site isn’t looking as clean and organized as I had hoped. I hope I can find a solution soon or make more […]
Data collection with the finger on the sensor allows the Raspberry Pi to detect heartbeat and blood oxygen level through a computer. The information can be sent to the server but needs to be stored. The first problem I ran into was the complexity of connecting the heart rate sensor to the Raspberry Pi. The […]
