HackProbe


The HackProbe is a 100x100x100 mm CubeSat that allows for the collection of a multitude of atmospheric data characteristics. I was specifically in charge of designing the board that gathered internal gyroscopic rotation, acceleration, and magnetic data.

Mighty Mouse


I designed a TOP OF THE LINE, AERODYNAMIC, FOOTBALL SHAPED computer mouse. The functionality of the mouse is to train little children at a young age how to told a football correctly as they surf the web looking at football videos (also for ambidextrous)

DJ helmet


I designed a DJ helmet to go along with my MIDI-MIXER that I made in CRT 360. It includes two LED rings that loop through 8 different LED patterns. It fits on my head and is surprisingly not heavy. I took inspiration off of the "BOXHEAD" dude from LMFAO.

Shot Roullete


I made a turn-table roulette table that dictates who takes what shot. The table is rotating on a servo and stops after a random time. Whoever the shot lands on has to take it. Perfect for college drinking games.

The Hardest Game Ever


I created a game where I used a joystick to control a player. The objective of the game is to navigate through the maze to reach the end of the maze. The catch is that if you touch a wall, your player gets reset to the beginning of the map.
