"Tau Beta Pi is the only engineering honor society representing the entire engineering profession. It is the nation's second-oldest honor society, founded at Lehigh University in 1885 to mark in a fitting manner those who have conferred honor upon their Alma Mater by distinguished scholarship and exemplary character as students in engineering..."

For our Senior Design course at Bucknell, my team is designing a rocketship game that will teach kids about rocketship dynamics such as the amount of fuel needed, the trajectory, and gravitational forces. The game will be on display in the local Children's Museum.
The game will be developed with the Unity Game Engine. Above is a video of a prototype we are making. It shows a rocket taking off and dropping the empty fuel containers.

This website will provide students an easy way to access many of Bucknell's resources. Some features will include dropping pins on locations of classes, showing shortest path to classes, linking to relevant websites, and more.
In order to determine which buildings classes are in, I used regualar expressions to parse through Bucknell's course-information pages. I collected the course numbers, course descriptions, and building locations. This will allow me to drop pins on the buildings students search for.
I have used HTML, CSS, Javascript, JQuery, and Python during development.
This is a remote control car I created using a Raspberry Pi 2 computer and the Blynk app on the iPhone. We used a thread to communicate with the iPhone and control the car in parallel.

For our data mining course's final project we decided to use data collected from the course scheduling website Nadeem developed, called no8am. The data included the courses that students put into their schedules and the time the schedules were saved. Using this information we were able to find fascinating results such as more schedules being saved during registration periods, some departments had more students enrolled even though they offereed less courses than other departments, and Seniors registered for more upper level courses than Freshman.
The above image is a snippet of the data we used.
We were able to apply techniques such as using statistics, clustering, developing assiciation rules, and supervised machine learning. We used the R programming language and RStudio.

This is an interactive game we developed in Java that allows the user to play poker against an artificial intelligence. During development we followed the agile development methodology SCRUM.

This is a model of the solar system that I made using VPython. The planets use real physics equations and calculus that I learned in school, in order to rotate around the sun. You can see the planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth/Moon, and Mars) orbiting around the yellow sun. I had to make the planets appear hundreds of times their normal size in order to actually see them on the screen.
