Joe Woods (Team Leader)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Joe is a senior computer engineering student at The College of New Jersey with interests in machine learning, mobile systems, and computer vision. Post-graduation, Joe plans on attending Drexel for his PhD in Electrical Engineering with a focus on machine learning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the team, he is the microcontroller lead, neural network lead, and budget manager. He will be creating the firmware interface for the microcontroller, training the navigation network, and deploying to the Arduino. Additionally, he\u2019ll track the team\u2019s spending, hours worked, and progress towards milestones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Samantha Potomic (Webmaster)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sam is a senior computer engineering student at The College of New Jersey with an interest in robotics. Post-graduation she hopes to work as a researcher in a lab doing research and developement on robotics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the team, she is the hardware lead and webmaster. She will be in charge of vehicle design and construction as well as NAO robot configuration for steering. Additionally she will design and develop the layout of the website and manage content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dirk Catpo Risco<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dirk is a senior computer engineering student at The College of New Jersey interested in software development, robotics, and machine learning. After graduation, he will pursue a Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Rutgers University, specializing in machine learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the team, he leads the development of the driving algorithm and the integration of the NAO robot. His primary goal is to make the car drive autonomously, utilizing sensor data to stay aligned with the walls and avoid obstacles. His other goal is to program the NAO robot to start and stop the car and to recognize and identify various room numbers during navigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
