PROJECTS
M.A.A.R. - Map Acquiring Autonomous Rover
Completed June 2001
The rover ran off of a rabbitcore, a Z-180 based microcontroller. It used a swiveling IR distance sensor to obtain a distance map of the forward 270° arc. This distance map would be translated into a surface height map and used for route selection. The height map would also be sent back over CRC encoded RF to the base station along with the coordinates to compile a surface map of the explored territory.

Cubelor - Stereogram Generator
Completed: March 2001
This program was written in C using X-Forms and openGL for a Unix platform. It has a basic 3D modeling program and an image loader. The program produces stereograms (commonly known as Magic-Eyes) from the 3D images.
