From a three-in-one ocean rescue trailer, to a detection-and-alert system for parents who travel with infants in their car backseats, to a drone laser tag game, engineering students at the Âé¶¹Ó³»´«Ã½ will showcase some of their inventions and new technologies from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday, April 24, during the Senior Design Showcase.<\/p>\n
Some prototypes offer potential solutions to real-world problems. Others offer a bit more fun and have the potential for commercial development. It\u2019s exactly what leaders in the College of Engineering and Computer Science want to see of their graduating seniors. The goal of the showcase is to give students a chance to display their final projects, demonstrate their technical knowledge and show they are fully prepared for engineering jobs. On a more practical level, the projects represent a significant portion of students\u2019 grades and in many cases is the final step before graduation.<\/p>\n
