THE
WORK
Selected projects from the workshop. Filter by discipline below — 3D digital work, physical fabrication, or hybrid pieces that bridge both.
Variable ND Sunglasses
Synchronized variable-density lenses in a 3D-printed frame with a steampunk-nautical aesthetic.
Self-Balancing Robot
Inverted-pendulum robot using full-state feedback control via Linear Quadratic Regulator in MATLAB / Simulink.
Portal Gun
Working replica of the gun from the game Portal — Arduino-controlled lights and sounds, body filler over plumbing pipe.
Hand Sanitizer Dispenser
Touchless dispenser using LEGO Mindstorms + ultrasonic sensor — designed during COVID-19 with limited workshop access.
Color Sensing Storage Box
Self-organizing 6-bin storage with rotary-encoded LCD menu, RGB color sensing, and stepper-driven turret.
Camera Head Helmet
Wearable camera-head prop hand-cut from styrene sheet and ABS pipe, inspired by the K-pop video "Cheer Up" by Twice.
Autonomous Light Detecting Robot
Light-seeking robot built for engineering 10 — 1630g triangular chassis, lighter than the rest of the class.
Ambient Temperature Sensor
Arduino + RGB LED comparing local temp readings against a webscraped forecast — gradient-bright LED based on % difference.
Jett Knife Fidget Spinner
Replica Valorant knife from in-game model — Fusion 360 design, ball bearing, tungsten counter-weights for spin balance.
Machined Wall Hanger
Two-piece aluminum wall hanger turned from bar and rod stock on a vertical mill and lathe — class machine-shop safety project.
Bone Conducting Headphones
Headband with bone-conducting transducers driven by a Bluetooth audio board — listen to music with your skull.
Decorative Resin USB
Glow-in-the-dark resin USBs as gifts — UV LED inside charges suspended glow powder.
Wind Turbine Blade
3D-printed turbine blade with curved profile + 100g balsa-stick tower — 22.9% blade efficiency, lightest tower in class.
Ocean Resin Chopsticks
Hand-carved wooden chopsticks with carved-mountain + blue-resin "ocean" inserts inspired by Ha Long Bay — Christmas gift.
