Projects

Low-Battery Indicator(LBO): Developed a sophisticated low battery indicator (LBO) circuit aimed at alerting users when the battery voltage drops to a critical level of 1.8V or below. The design prioritized energy efficiency by implementing a low duty cycle, thereby optimizing battery consumption. Leveraged a 9V battery as the power source to ensure compatibility with common consumer electronics.

Finite Element Analysis/Inventor Designs: Engaged in complex 3D design projects involving the creation of intricate components such as wrenches, I-beams, gears, bearings, and shafts using Autodesk Inventor. Conducted finite element analysis (FEA) simulations to comprehensively assess stress distribution within these components. By identifying stress concentration regions, pinpointed both maximum and minimum stress load locations, facilitating design optimization for enhanced structural integrity. Evaluated force dispersion patterns to gauge the impact of loads on each design, ensuring their suitability for intended applications.

Motion and Sound Sensing Auto Opening Device: Demonstrated advanced skills in mechatronics by constructing a cutting-edge motion and sound sensing auto-opening device. Utilized 3D printing technology to fabricate intricate device models, seamlessly integrating Arduino microcontrollers, sensors, wires, and motors. Showcased the device's versatility by enabling it to open diverse objects through motion detection or audio cues. This project underscored proficiency in sensor integration, precise motor control, and intricate wiring techniques.
