MHP30 Hotplate Hacking
I am currently working on a project for work in the lab that requires interesting functionality. The material scientists that I am working with need to heat multiple solutions for automated mixing. This new project will be an add-on to the Opentrons OT-2 pipette robot that I have used previously. The OT-2 robot is a… Continue reading MHP30 Hotplate Hacking
Freshmen Engineering Design Day – Music Maker
This is my freshman engineering design day (FEDD) project. I worked on this project my freshman year of college at NCSU. The project finished early into my second semester. There were multiple projects to pick from. But, I was assigned to my first choice of Music Maker. We had to make a device that could… Continue reading Freshmen Engineering Design Day – Music Maker
