Up Coming Project
A timing system used for practices that allows phones to be used in place of stop watches.
Background
Smaller swim team staffs are at a disadvantage due to deciding between coaches and writing down times during main sets.
Background
If I built a software that allowed phones to connect to a server through a QR code to a website, then swimmers could submit times on the phones alleviating stress on a coach.
Current Stage
Documentation has been written and the beginning stack has been created.
Computer
A board with access to 64k of ROM and RAM, peripherals in the form of a keyboard and 7 segment display, and a RTC
Background
This was a project for my Microprocessor Design class. This was a semester long project that I learned the material parallel with the board building.
Outcome
The board had full functionality aside of being unable to connect to WIFI. Due to time constraints I ran out of debugging time.
Learned
Improved upon my PCB designing skills and came to a better understanding of how different components interact with each other.
Volume Modulation Distance Circuit
A speaker gets louder and quieter based on how far on object is away from an ultrasonic distance sensor.
Background
This was a project for my Assembly Language Programming class. It also was my first time designing a PCB.
Outcome
The breadboard version worked but the PCB has a few issues. There were a few issues with incorrect footprints and missing components that required some ad hoc soldering.
Learned
Learning the basics of board design, component selection, importance of double checking work.
