Research
As part of my hands-on experience at Marquette, I worked as an undergraduate researcher under Dr. Sheikh Iqbal Ahamed in the Ubicomp Lab. I coded implementations, wrote papers, and did some fun research on the side, such as a controllable webcam in the lab.
My main project for the last year of my studies was iPhone application, Sustain. Some other projects I worked on include:
- An innovative solution for sleep monitoring that utilizes pervasive wireless technology and the internet that is comfortable for the patient and convenient for the doctors
- An analog-to-wireless-to-analog bridge using several Tmote Sky devices to wirelessly connect a flex sensing glove to a computer
- A blood pressure monitor that sends results wirelessly to a PDA
- A PDA based RFID tag locater and asset tracking system
