Reaction Diffusion

In 1952, Alan Turing published his findings on Reaction-Diffusion systems, showing how they can be used to recreate the spots and stripes we see in animals in nature. I built a Python simulation for these systems, recreating many of the original patterns.

RadSat

Single Event Gate Rupture (SEGR) is a pain in space - single radiation events can short-circuit MOSFETs, causing them to drain power or accidentally open doors. I worked with another MIT extern on building early-stage sensor processing systems and preliminary circuit designs for NASA’s RadSat experiment, which studies SEGR in space aboard a CubeSat.

Coilgun

If you short a high voltage capacitor through an inductor, it creates an electromagnetic field that can act on a metal projectile. If you stack multiple inductors along a tube and trigger them with photogates, you can get the projectile to go pretty fast. I used this concept to build a electromagnetic rifle (Multistage Coilgun) as my high school senior project. It was a 3-Stage coilgun, and I used it to obliterate apples, glass bottles, and ceramics....
