The Compost Cycle

The Compost Cycle is a cycle that takes old food waste and makes something new out of it. We used a process of composting called vermicomposting, which uses redworms and makes fertilizer. With the fertilizer created, we then add the compost into our garden to grow fruits and vegetables and we give the food back […]

UVB

My project, UVB, was something that I thought would be incredibly useful during both the pandemic and normal times. With some inspiration from Mr. Hunt, I designed a box that would sterilize the surface of any device using UV lights. Phones, laptops, and any electronics that we carry around with us will inevitably end up […]

Electric Go Kart

Watching cars when we were younger made us want to go fast. Additionally, we’ve been to K1 Speed and have loved the thrill of electric go karts. As we’ve grown, so has the desire to have a kart. The biggest problem was the cost: high-end karts cost over $12,000 to start out! We wanted a […]

Conditioning Inner-Excellence

Recently, there has been more public focus and attention devoted to acknowledging mental health challenges among athletes, particularly those at and aspiring to be at the elite level. Because women athletes face social and structural inequities and challenges in participating in sports, there are complexities to understanding mental health struggles among this population. This research […]

SHC Homelessness Helpers Website

Growing up in the city, Jack, Aki, Sanders, and Sebastian were all exposed to the homeless crisis at a young age. Riding the bus and MUNI to school provided daily interactions with the homeless. They all always wanted to help the situation, but they never knew how. They figured that other members of the SHC […]

Satisfaction of Sound Synthesis

Originally I wanted to convey the importance of music in science. I thought that I would make a synthesizer but that would be too much and it would be limiting. However, I still implemented the usage of digital software to increase accessibility. One software I found was Max/MSP, a programming software/coding language for music and […]

Coffee Talk

Our group was inspired by the pressing contemporary topics that we felt were being dismissed and decided to highlight them in simplified animations to raise awareness. Our main goal was to create a project that would allow us to create animated videos that were digestible, impartial, and complementary to the youth. Throughout this process, we […]

Dashboard

About a year and a half ago, the I2 program received a donation of two Nvidia Quadro m6000s, and so we decided to build a computer in order to allow the school to utilize these opportunities. We were just able to finish the computer last year before the pandemic. Junior year, we continued our mission […]

Raspberry Band

In exploring the opportunity to integrate technology with music creation, I made a Raspberry Pi-controlled copper pipe glockenspiel. After cutting 30 copper pipes in different lengths based on the frequency of each music note, G5 to C8, I put the two sides of each copper pipe on the sponges and then secured them to the […]

The Pledge

As a part of SLI, the team tried to come up with a project that would make us as teenagers feel like we could be making a difference. We all know from firsthand experience that when a lot is going on in the world, it feels bad to not be able to do anything about […]
