Project Foodboost
This project was the first project I did at my minor Applied Data Science. Me and 5 other students were tasked with creating a recommendation system for people with a nut allergy. In this project we were able to use a Decision Tree Classifier to generate whether a user would like or dislike certain recipes based on their ingredients. After using this classifier to generate a list of recipes the user would like, we fed this list through to the LP model. The LP model consequently ends up returning 14 recipes, which includes lunch and dinner for an entire week.
Project Software Development
Project Software Development consisted of creating an Object Oriented prototype for smart home appliances. These smart home appliances would aid Korsakoff patients in their daily lives in a nursing home. Furthermore, this technology would make it easier for the caretakers keep track of their patients.
The Challenge
For this project, we were tasked to create anything that had to do with databases. We decided to create a program for a tablet that could control the light and ventilation. The tablets are intended to be mounted on the wall of a hospital room. Out of this description, we created a prototype showing we possess the skills necessary to realise this project. We ended up using Python for the tablet and an Arduino for the microcontroller side of the program. Linked below is a video of this project.
Project Automation
Project Automation consisted of creating an automated conveyor system that sorts cylinders based on height and material. This project made use of a PLC that we programmed in TIA Portal. Eventually we got to a point where we were able to select the order of cylinders by type. Afterwards, the conveyor would automatically sort and output them in the selected order.
Project Software
Project Software was the first project where I got to work with microcontrollers. This project consisted of programming a small robot with tank treads to be controlled remotely. We ended up using an XBOX one controller as our means of input, which allowed us to precisely control the robot. Eventually we created a specific protocol that could send the speed and steering instructions to the robot within a single byte.
Project Technical Infrastructure and Research
Project Technical Infrastructure and Research had a group of 4 students and me create a network infrastructure design for a fake company called RP6-Systems. The design had to meet some specific requirements. The requirements included needing to support multiple branches, network monitoring and control, redundancy, a VPN connection between both branches, and multiple departments per branch.
