CSU Students Create Autonomous Nursery Cart
Cart

Here is a success story that was passed along to us about a group of students who were supported by CSU's Undergraduate Summer Research 麻豆传媒高清 in 2022, .

"This project started as a term project in EEC 318 Signals and Systems in Fall 2021, by Ken, who designed and built a remote-controlled cart for a local nursery while in high school. It turned into a summer research project in 2022 with this team of three EE students (Ken, Russell and Shereen). Their EEC 318 and SD instructor (Zhiqiang Gao) tried hard, but failed, to find a CS major join the team, so the team has to climb a steep learning curve to learn everything on their own, guided by two CS faculty members: Dr. Qin Lin and Dr. Hongkai Yu in the summer.

The project officially became a senior design project in the Fall of 2022, supervised by Dr. Qin Lin. It is a truly multidisciplinary project, encompassing key design principles in mechanical engineering, electrical and computer engineering, robotics, and computer perception and vision processing, navigation, etc. And it built the foundation for future senior projects in autonomous driving for years to come. We, the faculty members, couldn't be more proud of what the team has accomplished and, more importantly, of how much each of the team members has grown professionally over the course to the last 12 months."


Undergraduate Summer Research Awards: Best Poster Prizes Awarded
USRA

Undergraduate research students presented their work at the 2022 Undergraduate Research Poster Session on September 22. Students, faculty, and staff presented research that was funded by the Undergraduate Summer Research Award (USRA) 麻豆传媒高清 and the  Scholars 麻豆传媒高清.

Based on faculty votes, the first place prize was awarded to James Iler (pictured right) for his poster titled 鈥淧rotecting Information with Linearized Polynomials.鈥 With mentoring from Department of faculty members Dr. Hiram  and Dr. Ivan and graduate student Kyle Traum, James developed an error-correcting code to protect messages from eavesdropping when transmitted over insecure channels.

Additional posters receiving awards were:

  • George Tomaras (advisors Chandra  and Petru ) 鈥淒evelopment of Micromixing Strategies Using Elements of Elongational Flow鈥
  • Olivia Russo (advisors Grace  and Eddie ) 鈥淎 Mixed Method Approach to Examine Resettled Refugees鈥 Parenting Practices鈥
  • Kara Timinski (advisor Mekki ) 鈥淢odified Silver Nanoparticles Coated with Alginate Hydrogels as a Drug Delivery Platform to Modulate Biological Function鈥
  • Marko Krieger (advisor Metin ) 鈥淔lexible Electronic Device For On-Demand Ocular Drug Delivery鈥
  • Dawud Sharieff (advisor Antonie ) 鈥淪imulation-based estimation of muscle forces from wearable sensors鈥

The Office of Research congratulates all of the students and their mentors, and encourages undergraduate and graduate students to continue to actively engage in research.
