Electrical Engineering (1st)

These projects are at the midpoint of a two-semester sequence.  They are not complete.

Coming Soon!

E1.01 Integrated Camera & Lighting System

Sponsor: NASA - Texas Space Grant Consortium (TSGC) 

Student Team: Collin Peters, Keith Griffin, Jonah Hartley 

Faculty Advisor: Mr. Mark Welker 

Exploring the moon will require rover vehicles outfitted with imaging systems that can handle the dichotomized lighting environment. The project objective is to design and implement control features for the existing Integrated Camera and Lighting System. These include a multi-function display, improved video image control with object detection, and a user interface all integrated on a custom PCB. 


E1.02 Radiation Tolerant Crew Laptop-2

Sponsor: NASA - Texas Space Grant Consortium (TSGC)  

Student Team: Cameron Curtis-Elijah Callahan, John Camp, Aaron Dahl, Noah Steres 

Faculty Advisor: Mr. Jeffrey Stevens 

NASA is seeking solutions to the challenges that ionizing radiation poses to digital electronics in space. The High-Performance Space Computer is a radiation-tolerant processor based on the RISC-V instruction set architecture. Our project involves validating the Crew Laptop mainboard, designed by the Senior Design II team, to ensure its functionality and reliability in space environments. We will utilize the necessary tools for monitoring and debugging the board while validating system peripherals. Additionally, we will collaborate with the D2 Crew Laptop team to support their work and objectives, ensuring a seamless continuation of the project.

Sponsor: Ingram School of Engineering 

Student Team: Allie Lange, Joel Osho, Owen Ziegler 

Faculty Advisor: Mr. Jeff Stevens 

Our project is an autonomous robot that will follow a line while navigating a course as fast as possible. The robot detects and tracks the line while staying within the boundaries of the course, within the given time constraint. It includes various subsystems for line detection, motor control, power, navigation, and distance sensing. This project is important because precise navigation along a fixed path is useful for various applications, including public transportation and the movement of hazardous materials.
