Silicon Wafer Oxidation
Thermal oxidation of silicon at 1000°C with Arrhenius modeling using Deal-Grove theory. Generated growth datasets via NanoHub simulation, extracted activation energies, and compared to experimental results characterized by AFM and SEM.

Voice-Activated Joke Bot
Animatronic plush mascot built on an Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect. Detects a voice trigger word via the onboard microphone using a Cyberon library, then sends a spoken response through an Emic 2 text-to-speech module. Furby gear train drives the face animation.

Portable Sensor Bay
Raspberry Pi 5 + 7" touchscreen platform for hot-swappable industrial sensors. Built for predictive maintenance: swap I2C sensors (thermal, ultrasonic) without rewiring. Real-time visualization, I2S audio, 3D-printed enclosure.
