  • EE 626 Rapid Prototyping of Electrophysical Devices - Hands on experience in designing, fabricating, testing, and iterating according to rapid-prototyping principles. Students learn state-of-the-art equipment for making their designs, software for simulating designs, and working in design teams.

    During this class I've developed the first prototype of interactive cards. The pitch for the project can be viewed in this video, the final submission is here.

Water Quality Simulator
  • ICS 664 Human-Computer Interaction II - Studies of human performance in designing and using information systems. Emphasizes concepts and methodologies from human factors, psychology, and software engineering relating to human performance.

    In this class, our coursework involved designing, evaluating (from user's standpoint) and conducting user testing on a system. My group chose to work in a system that would integrate smart parking guidance in a parking lot (using guiding lights embedded in floor). Our presentations on the project can be found here, here, and here.
Smart Park prototype
  • ICS 665 User Interfaces and Hypermedia - Advanced concepts in construction of interfaces between computers and their users. Hypermedia information structures, guidelines, problems, and tradeoffs. Discussion of selected readings, implementation of prototypes.

    In this class we summaries reading and viewing materials relating to the topic, and suggested some design ideas to solve problems. My project pitch can be found here and the final presentation here, this project was only partially implemented.
