● Implemented multi-paxos to handle a non-central distributed system and for failure tolerance CNN Image Classifier

March 2023 -April 2023

● Preprocessed image data to better easily train model(find max gradient, mask, etc)

● Created different combination of layers including softmax layer in order to train model

● Used pooling layers in order to keep as much information as possible while reducing the dimension for faster training times

Poke-Walker

March 2023 - March 2023

● Created a pedometer that would display a different pokemon evolution when a certain step count is met

● Implemented LCD display using the SPI protocol and register level C programming

● Figured out how to convert images to png to bitmap and send the data to the LCD to display the image

● Utilized I2C protocol to communicate with the accelerometer in order to track and count step SKILLS
