ASGSR Conference and Presentations

I traveled with several students to Cleveland, Ohio to present our results and posters. This was an amazing experience and I am incredibly honored to have been able to attend. Out of around 10 teams that competed in the Capillary Flow Challenge, my team won first place on the basis of elapsed time to droplet

NASA Glenn Research Center and ASGSR CFC Experiment

I, along with a group of two other people from my school, Gracen Mueller and Ryan Cuentes, submitted a project proposal to the ASGSR Capillary Flow Challenge that was accepted. The project is testing the ejection of droplets in a zero gravity environment using the Glenn Research Facility’s 2.2s drop tower. My team will be

MIT and MIT Lincoln Labs Beaver Works Summer Institute

I attended a summer program at MIT where I and 45 other high school students took a junior level robotics course where we learned the basics of robotic programming. We learned about PID controllers, openCV and blob detection, GraphSLAM, and professional communication skills. In the end, we had functional autonomous race cars. My team scored

Genetic Algorithm

I implemented a highly abstracted version of my artificial intelligence final project. This version of my genetic algorithm provides a simple API for a developer to use and allows the user to pass in their own fitness function. https://github.com/Brenn10/Basic-Genetic-Algorithm
