Introduction This project implements a 2D matrix of bidirectional LEDs to simulate how fireflies in a population synchronize their flashing. Fireflies are an extraordinary species of bioluminescent animals which are able to synchronize the timing of their light emission within a flashing population. In places such as Thailand and Malaysia, during night at the right […]

Introduction A perfect tool for high school students that will pursue a career in engineering, the graphing and statistics calculator combines the functionality of a scientific calculator with graphing capabilities as well as being able to compute simple statistics. The purpose of this calculator is to compete in the graphing calculator market with the common […]

Introduction For the Final Project in ECE 476: Designing with Microcontrollers, Robbins and Saha developed a Speech Recognition Jukebox, comprised of a speech recognition system that activated a simple music player.   The speech recognition system was capable of recognizing four commands and could cycle through a simple play list of three songs.  The jukebox could […]

Knowing where agricultural land is located is crucial for regional and global food security planning, and information on field size offers valuable insight into local economic conditions. Two new global maps, released today in the journal Global Change Biology, provide a significant step forward in global cropland information on these two topics.

Introduction The goal of this project is to determine the time and location of a sound source in all three dimensions (x,y,z) using an economical and easily reproducible setup. To accomplish this goal, we decided to try and triangulate the sound source using a 4 microphone configuration.  We used the Atmel Mega32 microcontroller to detect […]

Introduction For our final design project, we chose to build a touch screen radio controlled car. Essentially, the RC car will follow a path drawn by the user on the touch screen as it is drawn in real time. Speed and direction of the car was extrapolated from the user drawn path and sent to […]

The goal of this project was to develop a system capable of emulating an Apple II personal computer. This project attempted to reconstruct a functional Apple II emulated on Atmel ATmega32 processors. Due to time constraints, a fully functional Apple II was not produced; however, a working emulated 6502 processor, memory subsystem, and partial GPU […]

Introduction The clock is one of the oldest inventions in human history and has been used for centuries as in instrument for measuring time. There are many ways to implement this ancient technology by simple and practical methods. However, si mplicity and practicality were not among the goals of this project. Instead, the project is […]

Introduction The Cornell University Autonomous Underwater Vehicle team (CUAUV) is an undergraduate engineering team that designs and builds a fully autonomous, robotic submarine. Over the past year, the team – of which both Manoj Lamba and Ian Wang are members – has had a stringent policy of testing the vehicle weekly at Cornell’s Teagle pool. […]

1 Introduction Our final project is the CUSat Diagnostic Board (CUDB). This board will be used for monitoring CUSat system health as well as performing various functions allowing for easy integration and debugging of CUSat components. 1.1 CUSat CUSat is the Cornell satellite team’s entry into the Nanosat-4 competition sponsored by the Air Force Research […]
