EXPERIENCE
• Project Lab II Project, Developed a microprocessor based power monitoring system that
measured the voltage, current and frequency for a 120 VAC load. The system calculated and
displayed the power and power factor of the load. The system disconnected the load on
under-voltage, over-current, and under-frequency.
• Project Lab I Project, Developed a fully automated robot which followed a metal conductive track,
decreased speed then stopped when an obstacle was present; made logical decisions when it
encountered a certain color on the track. Verilog HDL used heavily.
