CSE Senior Design I Superior Designs, Inc. Fall 2015 Approved Projects (for final delivery May 2016) Instructor: Mike O’Dell P Important Notes About Projects These are the only approved projects for this semester. No others will be added. The projects listed with titles in red are sponsored projects, representing real customer needs. These projects will be assigned, selected or not. If a project is selected/assigned that shows the sponsor as “TBD,” a sponsor must be identified and named by the team within one week of project start. P Panic Button Develop a system to allow a “panic” call to specified phone numbers. Application should run on desktop computer and/or be implemented as a separate programmable wireless device. Button activation should also activate voice recording device and store recorded audio. Must be able to activate panic call unobtrusively. Sponsor: Dr. Alexandra Stefan P On-Target Detection System Develop a system to remotely score and report results of weapon test results Approach might deploy acoustic/visual hit detection mechanisms to determine location of hit in target grid. Sponsor: Thomas Moore, Orbital ATK P Patient Monitoring System Develop patient monitoring system that would allow tracking and reporting of patient vitals (BP, etc.) Access database to project health issues Interface with reporting system that is accessible by physicians to use in patient reviews/appointments Joint project with IMSE Sponsor: Dr. Paul Componation (IMSE Chairman, and UT Southwestern Medical Center P Class Assistant Reporting System Automate the tracking of hours, etc. of UTA College of Engineering undergraduate class assistants Identify students via biometrics, photo, etc. and provide means to prevent fraudulent reporting Generate timesheets with relevant information on each assistant Implement as mobile app. Sponsor: Dr. David J. Ewing, MAE Department P Zoning Watchdog System Provide residents the opportunity for equal representation in the zoning process. Solution should effectively and efficiently notify residents of zoning change requests and enable and facilitate an organized community response from residents with similar support or concern. Mobile application that notifies residents of pending zoning change requests and status. Sponsor: Sogeti USA P ???TBD Project details to be defined. Sponsor: Travis County Courts Note: we expect a project based on input from one of your classmates, but have not yet received sufficient information to publish the concept. If a concept is finalized by Thursday this project list will be updated. If not, the project will be deleted. P 2016 IEEE Robotics Competition Develop a robot and participate in IEEE Region 5 Student Robotics Competition April-May timeframe in Kansas City, MO. Requirements as specified by contest rules. Successful project team will enter and participate in competition (and win) Sponsor: Dr. Chris McMurrough/Matt Middleton P Dental Tech Camera Develop a head-mounted camera that "snaps on" to dental hygienist safety glasses Would allow the hygienist to stream stills or videos to a tablet/pc/monitor to show the patient what they are seeing. Jac Justice, RDH (Stephen Ratcliff, DDS, on Davis and Tucker close to campus) Potential Sponsor: Jac Justice, RDH (Stephen Ratcliff, DDS, on Davis and Tucker close to campus) P Open Source ECG/Holter Monitor Develop a mobile ECG system to allow patient monitoring Integrate sensors, microcontrollers and monitoring application See discussion at http://hackaday.com/2014/02/23/mobilecggoes-open-source/ Potential Sponsor: UT Southwestern possible synergy with Patient Monitoring System P Vertical Farming Develop a vertical farming (aeroponics) system. Develop a chamber that allows variations of nutrients, light mixture, timing. Develop an app to allow experimentation. NASA is interested in aeroponics for space station food production. Potential Sponsor: NASA? P Virtual Drivers’ Training System Develop a system that will provide drivers’ training using a VR headset (a driving “game”). Integrate realism by using devices with a “cockpit” including steering wheel, accelerator, brake pedal, turn indicators, etc. Provide a mechanism to score the student on various driving scenarios. Sponsor: TBD (Local Drivers’ Education Company?)
