Accomplishments
- Working Raspberry Pi Tablet- For my senior project, I had created a smart tablet using a raspberry pi, a touchscreen, battery, and speakers, all with a budget of $100. The goal of this project was to show how approachable and affordable working with technology can be. This project taught me how to program and troubleshoot, which are two important skills that I still use to this day. Altogether, this project took me 3 months to complete
- Pod Sleeves- Fellow NAU student Joe Lopez and I are currently working on a project we call “Pod Sleeves”. This project involves creating a silicone case for the tech company Apple's Airpods. The idea is to integrate a kickstand into the airpod case itself so that one can prop their smartphone onto the case and not have to worry about their phone falling.
- Altoids Tin Portable Charger- Using only a USB car charger, a 9v battery, and an Altoids Tin, I was able to create a portable battery that was capable of charging smartphone devices.
- Wireless earbuds- For this project, I took a pair of wired earbuds and cut them. I stripped the wires on the inside and was able to determine which wires were the positive, negative, and neutral terminals. Using said Knowledge, I soldered these wires onto a bluetooth receiver, which was able to connect to my smartphone wirelessly, thus creating wireless earbuds.
