This is a collection of projects that I have done. Please view the PDF's for more information.
Problem: Use a ML model to efficiently land a craft onto a landing pad.

Project Website: https://www.engr.colostate.edu/~sudeep/indoor-localization/
Problem: While GPS is great at locating a device outdoors, it has trouble penetrating the roofs of buildings, providing an inaccurate location.
Solution: Predict the location of the user by using KNN machine learning algorithm and Wifi.
Results: https://github.com/LaneSBarnes/Portfolio/blob/master/Indoor%20Navigation%20Report.pdf
Report Fall Symester: https://github.com/LaneSBarnes/Portfolio/blob/master/Occupancy%20Monitor%20Part%201.pdf
Report Spring Symester: https://github.com/LaneSBarnes/Portfolio/blob/master/Occupancy%20Monitor%20Part%202.pdf
Problem: Occupancy limits set by fire code is hard to recognize and enforce.
Solution: Infrared cameras positioned above a room's entrances will use basic image processing to count people coming in and out. A master-slave connected through wifi will synchronize all cameras and display the total amount of people.
Results: Accurately counted people coming in and out of the BC-Infill during the E-Days demo.
Report: https://github.com/LaneSBarnes/Portfolio/blob/master/Motion%20Capturing%20Glove%20Controller.pdf
Problem: Manual control of external robotic claws/grabbers can be difficult.
Solution: Glove with flex sensors placed behind each finger joint will track the full range of motion of the human hand.
Results: Gloved moved each ligament of 3D modeled hand created in Unity.
Report: https://github.com/LaneSBarnes/Portfolio/blob/master/Automatic%20Attic%20Fan.pdf
Problem: Most attic fans are manually turned on or off.
Solution: Using CMOS transistors, thermistors, and relays, a fan can be activeted when a certain temperature is reached.
Results: When exposed to hot air from a hair dryer, the fan would activate, enter a state of hysteresis, and then deactivate when the thermisters fall below the lower threshold temperature.
Report: https://github.com/LaneSBarnes/Portfolio/blob/master/Programmable%20Keypad%20Lock.pdf
Goal: To create a programmable keypad lock that can store user-made passwords.
Results: 3x4 keypad and LEDs are wired to an Arduino. The Arduino controls a servo which opens a lock.
This is where I do all of my hobby programming projects. It mostly contains software related to speedrunning videogames. https://github.com/DerKO9
