Comparing the External Thermal Properties Between Lithium-Ion and Solid-State Electrolyte Batteries in Photovoltaic Applications

Our project focuses on developing a proof-of-concept demonstration to examine how ambient temperatures impact solid-state electrolyte and lithium-ion batteries, emphasizing the promise of solid-state electrolytes as a dependable alternative to liquid electrolytes. This demonstration connects a solid-state lithium battery to a photovoltaic cell to simulate an energy harvesting and distribution system powering a small load…

Circuit/PCB for Real-Time Sensing with Readout

The objective of this project is to make important biomedical sensing and testing more accessible to individuals. In doing so, the scope of this project is to create a device that is able to take the input from a biosensor chip and analyze the output signals on each of the sensing channels. An amplifier will…

Characterization and Analysis of Radiation Effects on Semiconductor Technologies

Aerospace, medical imaging and military devices are regularly exposed to damaging ionizing radiation. This can lead to higher power consumption, device degradation and even device failure. To support radiation hardened design, this project aims to demonstrate laser-assisted device alteration (LADA) as a non-destructive technique for detecting interface trapped charges induced by exposure to gamma radiation. …

Bluetooth-Controlled Mooring Buoy Locking System

Design a system using our current mooring ball that would incorporate Bluetooth technology. This technology would release the pennant line when it detected the proper signal from our program on the users’ phone (Bluetooth handshake). When no signal is detected, the pennant line stays secure and is locked in place. Once the boater has completed…

Autonomous Solar Cleaning System

Our team designed and fabricated a solar-powered cleaning system for residential rooftop panels. It requires no external power, relying solely on an independent solar panel and battery charging system. This system aims to maximize energy collection by removing dust and debris from hard to reach solar panels to enhance panel performance and longevity. Demo Day…

Autonomous Chemical Sensing Drone

The objective of this project is to correctly detect significant gaseous concentrations of ammonia, an airborne pollutant which is toxic to organic life in large concentrations. The system will function autonomously to survey an outdoor area of interest and wirelessly transmit collected GPS and sensor data back to a Ground Control Station, or GCS. With…

1D Self-Consistent Schrödinger-Poisson Solver for Modeling of Silicon-Based Nanoscale Transistors

Our project develops a 1D Self-consistent Schrödinger-Poisson solver to model nanoscale silicon devices addressing quantum effects in MOS capacitors, MOSFETs and SOI structures. This MATLAB-based tool, featuring a GUI, will enhance device design and optimization, with plans for NanoHub integration.

20×20 Drag Race Car

Build an RC car that can drive in a straight line for 20 meters really fast. If the car veers to the left or right too much, the car needs to have a feedback system in place that steers it back to the center of the path until it reaches 20 meters. Demo Day Zoom…

Amazon DeepRacer

The Amazon DeepRacer project demonstrates the capability of reinforcement learning as a method to develop an autonomous driving system. The objective of the project was to design, train, and evaluate a reinforcement learning model capable of successfully navigating the DeepRacer vehicle around the track in the shortest time possible. Our team used the DeepRacer console…
