This section covers how I combine my passion for videogames with my passion for engineering.
This object is called a crafting table and it's usually one of the first items a player makes, so I thought it would be fitting to be the first thing I designed and 3D-printed.
This block, along with another piece I designed, called the bookshelf block, sit on my desk with a few other trinkets on this list.
Skills: PCB Design, Electronics, Soldering
The Peacekeeper Glove is a prototype prop of the glove from the animated television show The Legend of Korra.
The glove consists of an accelerometer, microcontroller, step-up transformer, and various other components to create a high voltage arc between the first two knuckles when a punch is detected using a custom PCB.
Skills: Electronics, Soldering
Based on the equipment from the video game, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege, I build a prototype prop of Blitz's shield.
The shield is meant to temporarily blind anyone facing 6 arrays of bright white flashing LEDs on the front.
The device is powered by an 18V drill battery and operated by the wielder via a momentary push button and toggle switch.
Skills: Electronics, Arduino Programming, Soldering
Made prior to my prop of Blitz's shield, my Nerf Blitz's shield is a modified Nerf gun attachment, equipped with flashing 10x3 and 5x4 white LED arrays, a 650nm red laser diode, and a piezo speaker.
It's controlled entirely via a smartphone or by the wielder with 5 capacitive touch sensors mounted onto the front of the shield.
Skills: 3D Printing, Electronics, Soldering
This is a pocket watch from the game Return of the Obra Dinn, that keeps time and was a birthday gift to my brother.
The project utilized a time keeping mechanism from a broken clock and was installed in a shell that I designed and 3D-printed.
