Jennifer Zhang, Year 3 Abstract Finding materials to absorb more noise is important because noise can cause a severe impact on people’s physical and mental conditions. My research question is how do surfaces shapes and materials’ placement affect sound absorption? Three different surfaces (flat, circular, triangular) and eight different placements (1, 2O, 2L, 2J, 3C, […]
Deep Image Classification for Skin Cancer Detection

Sometimes, skin cancer is hard to detect, and people may dismiss a dangerous form of melanoma as a non-cancerous mole. A […]
Using Histograms of Electromyography Signals to Detect Essential Tremor
Athena Cai, Year 2 Engineering. Abstract Essential tremor is a common life altering condition that causes involuntary shaking which results in the loss of fine motor skills and inability to care for oneself. An algorithm was written in C++ code to differentiate between essential tremors and purposeful muscle movement through an Arduino UNO and an […]
An Epilepsy-Tracking App for People with Epilepsy and their Carers

However, most epilepsy management apps only have general settings, or are too technically complicated, impairing documentation and communication between patients and healthcare providers. Furthermore, there is a gap in the literature concerning which features of […]
