Our project is a low-cost autonomous vehicle for search and rescue, suitable for hobbyists or large-scale production.

Create a fruit quality assessment device for consumers to use in their everyday shopping. The device would be portable, small form factor, and would be non-invasive in its assessment of fruit.   

ASU’s Interplanetary Initiative lab was facing challenges completing the stress testing requirements to have their CubeSat’s 18650 batteries approved for space flight through Nanoracks. To address these challenges, our team has created an efficient and reliable 18650 battery tester design for stress testing. The battery tester simulates real life charging and discharging at 0.5C and displays/reports to the Arduino IoT Cloud.

The Home Smart Power Meter aims to provide users with real-time data on their home's power consumption, enabling them to compare their power usage with that of the electric company and receive notifications about power outages. 

Use sEMG electrodes to read action potentials of muscle movements. Which are then preprocessed in a ASIC to be displayed and utilized for further implementation.

Analog implementation of neural networks is a promising research area for faster, more efficient machine learning algorithms. Dr. Marinella and Sandia National Laboratory developed a memristor array that could be used for these applications, but it was not accessible to researchers and developers. The team developed an interface to allow researchers to easily control, measure, and program the chip.

This project is an assessment and development of O&M Documents for ASU ISTB-7 Building. Additionally, online line diagrams were updated for the respective building along with the proposed design for Solar/EV integration to establish charging station at ASU.

Hades Radio is a Software Defined Radio Telescope that is designed to capture the Hydrogen Line at 1420MHz. We built a custom motorized mount for the Z-axis with a stepper motor and Arduino code. We also built 3 separate models to test effectiveness versus cost to create the most affordable end product.

Team Thermostat has designed and built a smart thermostat with the capability to control two heating sources.  This capability is implemented to support the adoption of environmentally friendly heat pump technology.  Utilizing data collected from the internet and measured from the environment, the thermostat can use whichever of the heat sources will minimize cost or emissions at any given time.

A flexible sleeve for a pickleball paddle that measures grip force and swings paths. It is a training tool for new players of pickleball who are learning different shots in the game. Different shots such as a dink shot and a drive require different grip forces and swing motions to be executed properly which is what this project aids in.

Educating an Autonomous Future" involves a self-balancing, two-wheeled robot with the original goal of providing supplementary education for engineering students. 

The rise of distributed energy sources (DERs) such as turbines and solar panels have created the need for bidirectional flow in the bulk electric system. To determine if this is safe for existing infrastructure, a hosting capacity analysis (HCA) is performed. Reducing the amount of time the data validation step takes will reduce the amount of time an HCA takes - allowing stakeholders to safely integrate DERs into the grid.

Crash Alert is a safety device for bike riders designed to be used in conjunction with a traditional bike helmet. It monitors a rider and automatically deploys an airbag if a crash is detected to help minimize injury.

This project consists of a two circuit board system for testing the cumulative effects of ionizing radiation on various technologies.

SolarBrick is a PV power generation device that incorporates photovoltaic cells into the existing standard design of a cinder-block and turns an ordinary wall into a power generator
