Cubesat Camera System
Integrated LUCID Vision GigE cameras with Edmund Optics lenses for a
satellite optical payload, working alongside a mission director and
software team.
- Set lenses to infinity focus and validated image quality end to end
- Diagnosed and resolved GigE connectivity issues across the imaging chain
- Sourced and specified space-grade adhesives for connector staking to NASA-STD-8739.1

Carbon Fiber Layup Mold
Designed a two-piece mold (LidV2) for a carbon fiber lid component,
balancing part release, surface finish, and layup access.
- Modeled draft angles and fillet transitions to ease de-molding
- Built a parallel workflow using SolidWorks' Insert → Mold → Cavity tool
- Iterated pocket geometry for a clean carbon fiber surface finish

Battlebot Armor & Drivetrain
Contributed to a student battlebot team, from front armor material
selection to motor control for the drivetrain.
- Evaluated titanium vs. aluminum armor, specifying 3mm bent aluminum for weight and cost
- Sourced local fabrication partners for sheet metal bending
- Applied motor driver knowledge (L298N, brushed DC motors) to drivetrain control

Arduino Motor Control Bench
Self-directed electronics build-up, working through motor drivers
and power delivery as a foundation for an eventual drone build.
- Controlled Type 130 brushed DC motors via L298N drivers with PWM
- Compared power strategies: 9V batteries, barrel jacks, bench supplies
- Documented findings for reuse on future robotics builds
