Noah Beard

Dynamic and detail-oriented professional with experience at Mannings Feed and Seed, excelling in inventory management and team collaboration. Proficient in C++ and circuit debugging, I thrive in fast-paced environments, ensuring timely order fulfillment while maintaining organization. My passion for technology drives my innovative approach to problem-solving and prototyping.

SCADA-Controlled Car
Developed a remotely controlled vehicle system using IR sensors, motor controllers, and an Arduino microcontroller. Programmed in C++ to execute real-time responses based on user input from a C# interface built in Microsoft Visual Studio. Enabled remote control of speed and direction, with integrated collision detection and warnings—simulating a basic SCADA system.

Automated Game Feeder
Engineered a programmable game feeder using an Arduino Mega, relay control, and high-torque DC motors. Triggered by time-of-day scheduling and motion sensors, the system dispensed feed using a weatherproof, battery-powered housing. Designed for reliable field operation with emphasis on energy efficiency and rugged durability.

Temperature and Humidity-Controlled Chamber
Constructed a closed-loop environmental control system using SHT31 sensors, heating elements stripped from crock-pots and an essential oil diffuser. Implemented PID regulation via Arduino to maintain setpoints for both temperature and humidity. Enabled communication between microcontrollers and sensors through the I²C bus, creating an efficient and responsive control loop
