School Projects          

·        Created a theremin as a senior design project.  The theremin is an electronic musical instrument.  The device was designed and implemented through a group effort.  The device utilizes a PIC Microcontroller to sample the “square” type wave generated by the analog portion of the hardware.  The sampled frequency is used to calculate the current pitch and volume of the current note being played.  Concurrently the device sends MIDI messages to custom software on a PC.  The PC software then analyzes the performance of the player.

 

·        Created a multi-purpose pendulum clock.  Together with a group, we designed and implemented a clock that utilized a Ubicom SX Microcontroller to control a swinging-arm based clock with LED’s displayed the time as it swung back in forth.  Other devices were also polled using the I2C bus.  These devices included a thermometer chip, a real time clock chip, a 2-line LCD, and a digital potentiometer used to control the contrast of the LCD.
