CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

So, while I generally stay off school projects, I think this one is fun enough to deserve it's own brag- err original topic of discussion ^_^. I've been building electronic circuits all semester using Labview and the ADR122 and DAQ boards... and for the most part I've just been storing binary information or creating a stop light that changes color every so many seconds...

This latest one however... it didn't take skill quite as much as it just plain looks cool. We had to wire up 8 LEDs to a DAQ board and then have the computer GUI control whether they turned on or off... Complicated, not really... time consuming yes... (Ok, so it only took about 20 minutes to wire up the breadboard) Looks really cool to show off to friends on the internet DEFINITELY! ^_^

And just for fun, here is a random image of my drawing of a crazy scientist I sujugated to my class earlier this semester.



What cool projects have YOU done this semester! If you can't find anything, it's time to become a physics major .

Bump.

Come on! Show off the cool things you did during the semester, I know that not all of us are students, but some of us should have some pretty cool things we've done!

Nope, no interesting projects this term since I'm bingeing pure math and theoretical CS courses. However, on the subject of electronics, we did get to make a PCB in high school in our electronics class: etching the board and soldering the components.

I've been working on a rocket with a school team, but it isn't built yet. I'll get back to you with pictures later. (It's a tough competition.) The rocket should be built by Dec. 12th. (Date for our first test launch.)

Digital Electronic FTW

Go Pro. Go analog!

Excellent, we await the exciting photos of your achievement! (And the tale of it's launch!)

Not even a single interesting paper that you wrote?

Nope, I'm an undergrad; most of my courses are pretty much learning a pile of theorems and proofs and working through a pile of problems.

I finished university a year ago, but one particular interesting project was a rollercoaster game for Computer Graphics in 2007:

That is awesome W4C! Does it give you the slight feeling that you're on the roller coaster when the game is playing (you know that feeling I'm talking about right). Either way, that's a really cool project!

It does have a "motion blur" option you can turn on, which is shown in the last picture. That does give the feeling of being in on a slightly shaky roller coaster. It's also not really a game per se, because it doesn't involve skill and it has no object.. but it's still the most satisfying project I've done. (Got second highest mark in the class too!)

There are some pretty cool projects here. The stuff I'm doing for work these days is mostly mixed signal: analog amplifiers and signal conditioning, along with data conversion for some DSP software I've been working on.

I think the most interesting digital lab I had as an undergraduate was the construction of a datapath system out of TTL chips. That was a lot of work: putting together pretty much everything needed for register transfers, RAM, ALU, etc.

Another thing I'm proud of making. I created a good portion of this... while seeing hallucinations from sleep deprivation. Well, now I can finally start getting some rest now that everything is turned in. All that remains is to study for my final tests. I completed one of them already.

To Aleph_0 And Beyond!

Even still, it's pretty cool. The Irrationals far outnumber the Rationals I TELL YOU! ALL OF YOU "RATIONAL" PEOPLE THINK YOU CONTROL THINGS! BUT IT'S THE "IRRATIONALS" THAT HAVE CARDINALITY ALEPH 1! THEY MAKE UP MOST OF WHAT IS "REAL"! YOU'RE ALL ONLY COUNTABLE! WE ARE SO VAST IN NUMBER WE ARE UNCOUNTABLE! BWAH HA HA HA!!!

Wow, a proof of the uncountability of the reals without using Cantor's diagonal argument. That was unexpected. Anyway, I found your paper to be a nice and concise explanation of why ℕ, ℤ, and ℚ are countable and ℝ is not, and all in one place too! I've been looking for something like this for myself to refresh the arguments in my head after reading articles from Internet crazy people who don't believe in the uncountability of the reals.

My head is flown over by your intelligence
