Projects
- Capstone Project : Cell Phones Contribution to Breast Cancer, This Capstone Project dove into how and if cellular devices contribute to reproductive cancer developement. Examining the wave signals emitted from cell phones, it was determined that our mobile devices do not in fact cause cancer mutations to occur within the human body due to the radio frequency being being too low and the wave length being too long. Collaborators: Dr. Kelley D. Sullivan Ithaca College
- Research Project : Arduino Programming, Programming an Arduino Uno microprocessor to improve the data recording for the Physics & Astronomy department's X-Ray diffractometer for future lab students to use in class. This research was selected to be presented at the APS March 2020 Meeting. Collaborators: Dr. Kelley D. Sullivan Ithaca College
- Revitalization Project : Clinton B. Ford Observatory Revival, In an attempt to bring the on-campus observatory back online after an extended period of disuse, a revitalization plan was developed and had initiated the execution of beginning phases for a long term strategy to open the observatory to those outside of the Physics & Astronomy department was developed and the Ithaca College Astronomy Club was formed. This research was presented at the 2019 PhysCon meeting in Providence, RI. Collaborators: Dr. Matthew Price Ithaca College
- Research Project : Water-Wheel Design Project, Development of an optimal design for a water-wheel was utilized to produce renewable energy. Successfully created a model in SolidWorks software program and presented research at the Ithaca College Summer Scholars Poster Session. Collaborators: Dr. Matthew Price Ithaca College
- Research Project : 3D Printing & Scanning, Performed underground scanning to record data in support of architectural 3D reconstruction of a school property and buildings. Additional research included 3D laser scanning of dental impressions and using dental software for various dental model. Collaborators: Dr. Michael 'Bodhi' Rogers Ithaca College
