Javascript and Python. 10:30am – Break 11:00am – LaserDrive Erick Arcos (BA), Christian Galang (BS), Ben Poplin (BA) LaserDrive is an autonomous RC car racing project, with the primary goal of having two autonomous RC cars capable of racing one another in a map. To do so, a second RC car was custom built to have a LiDAR sensor mounted alongside a Jetson TX2, power board, and a Vedder Electronic Speed Controller (VESC). To safely enable autonomous functions on the cars, algorithms were implemented in

review of algebra emphasizing problem solving skills. The notion of function is introduced via examples from polynomial, rational, trigonometric, logarithmic and exponential functions. We also explore inverse trigonometric functions, identities, graphing and the solving of triangles. Appropriate as preparation for Math 123, 128 and 140. Prerequisite: PLU math placement exam and two years of high school algebra. (4) MATH 123 : Modern Elementary Mathematics I: Number Sense and Algebraic Sense - QR

, which builds Artificial Intelligence (AI) hardware for Do-It-Yourself (DIY) maker projects. His top-secret plan for global change is to build things that help build more engineers. He is a recovering academic; as an Assistant Professor at Rice University his research was on distributed algorithms for multi-robot systems, which is software that produces complex group behaviors from the interactions of many simple robots. Previously, McLurkin was a Lead Research Scientist at iRobot and was the 2003

. In reality, most mathematics has been created in the last century, and more mathematical research is done now than ever before. Contemporary mathematics has played an integral role in the development of computer technologies, search algorithms, financial investing strategies, physical models of nature, fair redistricting voting models, and more. At PLU, we will teach you the classical mathematical tools that you need to begin to understand more recent developments and modern applications.Whether

natural and social sciences, emphasizing quantitative reasoning. Mathematics has always been part of innovative changes from the invention of the computer to the internet to the recent growth in data analytics, social media algorithms, and AI. And we train the next generation of mathematicians and statisticians who can adapt to these innovations successfully and ethically. PLU’s small math classes foster faculty-student interaction, promoting cooperative learning to maximize each student’s potential

. The mobile app also allows the user to search for flowers by name. 10:45am Break 11:00am Basic 3D Video Game Exploring the Concepts Involved in Game Engines Eric Sundberg (BSCS) The overall goal of this project was to learn about advanced concepts and algorithms that are used in modern game engines. To that end, it models them by means of a simple third person shooter game. In the game, the user moves the player around in a small world and tries to shoot as many enemies as possible before being

thinking about joining? At school, you are not going to learn everything you would ever need in real life. But it’s crucial to know in which area you should be digging deeper. The [MSMA] program is presenting a great opportunity to learn a solid foundation and empower you with resources. Take great notes so you know where to search when you deal with questions at work. Become a lifetime learner and focus your efforts on understanding the algorithms behind research/analytics techniques. Read Previous

through digitizing the analog input signals. These digital signals are then shaped by digital signal processing algorithms whose parameters are determined by user input. The whole process occurs on a 32-bit ARM microprocessor. The resultant signal is then converted back to analog to be used by an external system of the user’s choice. 3:30 Break 3:45pm – Swarm Engine: Parallel Programming Game Engine James DeBroeck (BSCE, BSCS) Swarm Engine is a C++ library used in game and simulation development, with
