  • Plant Exploration Project #2: Ganymede’s Terrain

    In our first Planetary Exploration Project, our team must design an efficient transportation method on a foreign celestial body, both without wasting excess energy and without wasting time,  capable of a 5-kilometre-long round trip on Ganymede, one of Jupiter’s moons. This vehicle must handle extreme conditions including temperatures as low as -180C, low gravity(a tenth…

  • Robotics Project – Arduino LCD

    As this is my very first experience with Arduino, I chose to follow a tutorial provided by the Arduino Projects Book(linked below) to create the “Magic 8 Ball”, or “Crystal Ball”, The very first step was to download software that acts as an IDE(Integrated Development Environment) that assists us in programming the Arduino UNO. Plugging…

  • CAD Project-Tire

    For my Cad project, I’ve chosen to create a LEGO tire complete with both rims and tread. Firstly, I went through part of the Onshape tutorial to teach me the basics of camera movement, sketching, and extruding as well as how to create a mechanical drawing and a bill of materials. Then, I began to…

  • Python Project-Cipher

    This is a blog post about my first of many projects in Fusion, a encoder/decoder for both Caesar and Vigenere algorithms. If that link doesn’t work, click here to view source code. The Process First Step was to flowchart the design to figure out the design process. From there, I used W3schools, a more experienced…
