  1. Current Undergraduate Research Projects Examples

  2. E-CarEvan Nixon and Alex Benjamin • Goals • Map campus autonomously • Obstacle avoidance • GPS sensitivity • Irregular intersections • Differing light conditions • Fastest route to destination • Route length at busy times • Approach • Interface car with computer • Sensors to get car information • GPS • Camera • Compass • Car uses information for tasks • Navigate to destination • Mapping • Obstacle avoidance

  3. Modular Dance FloorAndrew Wiens Goals • Build a modular dance floor • Approach • Modified Design from MIT. New and improved design departs from the MIT model • Key Features: • Modular • Portable • Interactive • Brighter • Faster • More Energy Efficient • Wireless • Beat Detection • Institute of Electrical and ElectronicsEngineers • Vertigo 2006 http://ieee.wustl.edu/dancefloor

  4. cubeSat based Communication SystemMichael Scholl, Alex Gu and Andrew Wiens • Goals • Developing algorithms for image selection and compression so we only transmit compressed interesting images. • Approach • Satellite will transmit images from a FLIR TAU infrared camera • Develop hardware and software for camera interface and RF communication • Collaborating with SLU aerospace engineering students
