For my project in 2020-2021, I motorized a large kayak. I decided on this project because I love to build, design, and to apply my skills in the real world. I was motivated to make this kayak electric after seeing the effects of gas on the Russian River, where my family has a house. I […]
Over the past couple of years, waking up on time in the morning has been really hard for me. I usually have to stay up to do homework and get roughly 3-5 hours of sleep. With the alarm bed, it forces you to wake up by physically moving you off of your bed and onto […]
I am interested in the idea of renewable energy used in portable applications to create independence. This project utilities’ a solar panel to power itself. The goal of the project is to create a rover for use in detailed surveying of farmland. The rover uses GPS and solar to become autonomous as it moves. I […]
I first came up with the idea for my project when working on my project last year. I worked on building an RC plane last year with a fellow classmate. When we were testing our plane last year, I came to realize that charging it was more difficult than it had to be. Whenever the […]
The Raspberry Pi Sand Table is a project I created based off an example I found online. It is a wooden table covered in a layer of sand, that uses a robotic arm to move a magnet beneath the table, and the magnet moves a metal ball over the sand to draw images. The ball […]
Frankie Spagnoli and Frankie Wilson have always been incredibly interested and fascinated by different technologies and machinery. Through Frankie Spagnoli’s passion for design, engineering, and creativity as well as his partner, Frankie Wilson’s, love for building and engineering, they thought of a product that would be entertaining as well as beneficial to society and its […]
My project, A.I. Picasso, is a mechanical pen plotter controlled by an artificial intelligence program. The A.I. program can recognize human faces and convert the images into drawing instructions. The robotic arm then follows the instructions to draw out the sketches of the faces. The goal of this project is to introduce artificial intelligence to […]
The goal of our project was to create a device that helps amateur golfers to improve their swings. Our golf swing analyzer utilizes an inertial measurement unit (IMU), along with an Arduino microcontroller to provide the user with feedback regarding the angle of their swing and the angle of their clubface. By using the gyroscopes […]
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 […]
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 […]
