The project is a helping hand for caregivers with children who just can't carry everything all at once. This bot is equipped with sensors that can track and follow the designated user. It will also have obstacle detection to navigate safely. The intended use for the bot is to act as an extra hand and provide assistance, such as carrying items such as a diaper bag, groceries, or small toys. | |

| Group 5 | BinWise: Intelligent Waste Sorting for a Smarter Planet | |
| Miguel Mier | Improper disposal and sorting of materials have made the recycling process less effective and more expensive, contributing to environmental damage as global waste increases. This project addresses this issue by developing a device that scans discarded items, asks users to guess the correct bin, and then provides feedback while automatically sorting the items using a machine learning model. By combining technology and education, the system improves recycling accuracy, reduces contamination, and encourages proper disposal habits through interactive learning. | |

| Group 6 | Smart Dive Suit | |
| Kristoffer Ketland | Image
The Smart Dive Suit is a system designed to keep divers safe and warm in cold water by monitoring temperature and power usage in real time. It estimates how much heating time remains and alerts the user if the system is overheating or running low on power. The suit also provides useful dive data such as water temperature, depth, and pressure through a wrist-mounted display. Additionally, it enables simple underwater communication with a dive boat using sound signals. | |

| Group 7 | Bluetooth Map | |
| Anthony Lor | Image
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Dragon Radar is a portable situational-awareness tool that detects BLE advertising signals in the 2.4 GHz band and converts them into a live “radar” view of nearby devices. The system continuously scans for BLE packets, extracts signal metrics (RSSI, packet rate, timestamps), and presents a real-time display that highlights which devices are present, how active they are, and how their signal strength changes over time. | |

| Group 8 | MyHome | |
| Joshua Brobst | Image
The project showcases a functional model of a clean energy and smart home that is powered by solar panels. In our project energy goes through AC/DC and DC/AC systems allowing it to run home appliances, charge the home's battery, and the electric vehicle's battery. Users can monitor and interact with household appliances such as its lighting through a web server. By combining renewable energy with smart technology, this model demonstrates a practical and sustainable vision for the future of residential living. | |

| Group 9 | Rogue Solutions – 9 Lives RC Vehicle | |
| Henry Samala | Image
The 9 Lives product is a multi-terrain tracked RC vehicle designed to assist users with hands-free data collection and payload delivery. It features AI tracking and autonomous driving to navigate environments such as sand, grass, and gravel. The vehicle can collect environmental data and provide live telemetry. This enables users to monitor real-time conditions, including air quality, harmful gases, and temperature, across residential, commercial, and industrial settings. | |
