Final Project: Page Flipper for Do-It-Yourself Book Scanner

This is the presentation and video for the DeVry Final Project which I led. This was a group effort with four team members geographically separated along the east coast of the United States. The real challenge in this effort was not technical, but in communication.

Each member worked on a component of the project, then the components were integrated at the end. We determined the scope of the project, allocated funds, set an itinerary, built overall specifications, then communicated component designs with each other for interoperability.

Class Project: Remotely Operated Vehicle

This is my first robotics project–we all must start somewhere! These images chronicle the development of a small three-wheeled vehicle, remotely operated by the user. The rear two wheels are drive and steering, while the front wheel is a swivel. The oversized development board depicted is the Dragon12.

Years later I would (of course) redesign the whole project. The development board will either be a Raspberry Pi 3b+, Raspberry Pi 0W, or Teensy. The circuits would be printed on PCBs and enclosed in either a 3D printed or off-the-shelf case.
