Navigating the Future: My Journey in Industrial Automation and Robotics
I had the honor of working at McMurray Stern, where I obtained first hand experience working on Industrial Robots such as the FANUS, HAI, STOW, Addverb, and Schaefer robotic systems.
On the left, a FANUC CRX collaborative robot functons with a Schaefer Vertical Lift Module in order to fullfill a specific customer request such as a KitKat Choclate. The robot utilizes its visual system to find the requested item, which in this case is the KitKat choclate. After finding the specific item to pick, it reaches close and uses the VGC-10 OnRobot suction gripper to grab the desired item then places it in a specific location for the user to pick up.
Humanoid Robotic Assistant
The primary purpose of the humanoid robot is to assist students and people at Glendale Community College through general information such as weather, news, notable events, etc. It can aid with direction to classrooms, information about specific departments in the school, the professor's office, etc. We are also utilizing the data collected to improve the school. In the future, it will be able to detect toxic gas and notify the school about emergencies.
From Concept to Companion: My Experience Helping to Develop Moxie the Robot
My journey in the realm of robotics has been a fascinating blend of creativity, innovation, and hands-on engineering. As a mechanical engineering intern at Embodied Inc. from 2016 to 2019, I had the incredible opportunity to contribute to the development of Moxie, a social robot designed to assist children in building social, emotional, and cognitive skills.
This experience not only honed my technical skills but also provided insights into the transformative potential of robotics in everyday life.
RC Fixed Wing Plane
The purpose is to provide first response medical attention & aid to people in need. The drone includes a camera system with tracking capability to help with locating. Addition of a catapult system to help with consistent initial launch capabilities. Using lightweight composite materials such as carbon fiber PC to limit weight.
Stress vs. Strain Data Analysis MATLAB Application
Developed a MATLAB application that plots & analyses the stress vs. strain data. The app is able to find the Yield Stress, Percent Elongation, Young's Modulus, UTS, Fracture point etc. It also works with Metals, Plastics, and Ceramic types of materials. Also, the app comes in Day & Night mode.
Physical Therapy Robotic Device
The purpose of Gen 2 is to help move a patient's damaged wrist from an accident by pulling their hand inward and outward. Initially, Gen 2 was created for AT&T 2017 Developer Summit competition. Then, I decided to make it open source for people to build, modify, and improve the project. Furthermore, this project is not at the level of practicality because most of the parts were reused from Gen 1 robotic hand. Also, this is the second version, where the design is much simpler to 3D print.
Robotic Hand
I built a robotic hand model for my high school senior project, which I'm able to control with the movements of my hand. The point of this project is to demonstrate why having engineering programs such as robotics is essential for those students who want to major in engineering. Students improve and develop their skills in handling pressure, teamwork, and communication to be prepared for upcomin
Formula SAE (UCI AFR)
Front Rocker & Damper System Jig
Designed & printed jigs to help with the welding process for the front rocker & damper system by keeping the components aligned in one plane.
Modular configuration o allow more adjustability.
Ultraviolet Resin 3D Printing
UV resin printing has many benefits, some of which are high-quality parts, able to print complex shapes and accuracy where an FDM 3D printer would struggle to match the capability. With this project, I gained experience working with an LCD resin 3D printer by printing a cube without any supports and curing it with proper tools.
Remote Control CAR
I have built an RC car within two days using Raspberry Pi 3+, Lithium battery, and two DC motors. With two motor-drive-wheels, it was efficient to use the tank-drive system to control direction & speed with a wireless keyboard.
3D Printable Gears
The focus of the project is to optimize various parts of the 3D printer to be able to print sophisticated components that can function adequately over many cycles.
Pulley Test Bench
A simple pulley test bench to check the energy and motion transformation from the DC motor to the wheels by using a pulley.
2D House Floor Plan
This floor plan was part of a class project where the focus was on 2D design using AutoCAD.
Complex Shapes
I used 3D printing to make complex shapes for art, decoration, and various household items that needed to be replaced.
Smart Car Door Handle
The primary function of the device is to detect ethanol levels in the sweat glands of a human finger and deciding if the human is capable of driving. If not, the auto-pilot of the vehicle will be in control to avoid any drunk driving accidents.
