Citrus Hack 2016 Winner for Best Use of AWS

Internet of Things (IOT) device which connects to your car's diagnostic port. The device uploads the car's data to your account on our R2-OBD2 web service. With this data in the cloud we are able to provide the user with useful information regarding their cars. The user can access this information through Amazon's Alexa voice service.

This project was created during the Citrus Hack 2016 hackathon hosted by the University of California, Riverside. Due to the inherent time constraints of hackathons, we opted to not implement the CAN bus protocol. Instead we created an Arduino car with a basic odometer. We used the Particle Photon to read the odometer from our "car" and then upload the data to our service. There are plans to flesh out the service's APIs and also to create Android/iOS apps and a web page for the service.

Maze solving website. Upload a maze image and the service makes an attempt to solve the maze for you. Once solved, the page loads a thumbnail of the image which you can click on to display the original image with the solution path overlaid in green. Any images that have already been run though mazer are cached and their solutions are returned immediately. Originally built as a Windows console application in C#. Most of the original code has been ported to Java.

Give it a try: https://mazer.herokuapp.com/
Note: Heroku's free tier sleeps the application after it has been idle for some time. Please give the application time to load in your browser.

Campus Ride is a mobile application that allows students on campus to request rides to any other location on the campus in exchange for Ride Points. Students are also encouraged to give rides in order to earn Ride Points that they can then use for rides. Developed for both Android and iOS (Not yet released).

Originally developed for Cal Poly's CS 480 Software Engineering course with plans for improvement and a future release.

Circuit Builder is a Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis (SPICE). In its current form, Circuit Builder allows the user to create very simple resistive circuits which it can then run nodal analysis against to determine node voltages and currents.

The purpose of this application was for submission as a final project to my Object-Oriented Programming course. Circuit Builder is a demonstration of the cumulative knowledge gained throughout the course. This was found on an old machine and imported as is. The circuit component images are missing and an exception will be thrown when attempting to add components to the workbench.

My plan is to get it working without changing too much and keep it as a record of my progress.

Computer built using off the shelf ICs and a Motorola 6800 microprocessor. Assembled using wire wrap on proto board.

Simple website where I can host information regarding my personal projects. Forked from Bootstrap Freelancer template. Hosted on Apache running on Ubuntu.

I2C implemented on the Spartan 3E FPGA board. Menu built around I2C implementation.

Magnetically levitated vehicle that achieves lift by alternating magnetic fields over a conductor. Alternating magnetic fields induce Eddy currents in the conductor which in turn create an opposing magnetic field resulting in levitation.

Used to fulfill Cal Poly's senior project requirement but I'd like to continue researching and developing this project.
