Poly_Sense: Modular Wireless Sensor Network, Ian Andal, James Shirley, Haleigh Vierra

Electrical Engineering

Poly_Sense provides a platform for developers to use for a wide range of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) applications. This modular system supports different sensing applications by allowing the developer to easily change between supported sensors through the graphical user interface (GUI). The platform also allows developers to integrate new sensors by writing device drivers which follow the platform’s guidelines and utilize the application programming interface (API). This low-power and cost-effective wireless solution not only provides a basic platform for entry-level developers, but also accommodates larger-scale applications.

Monophonic Pitch Recognition, Nathan Zorndorf, Kristine Carreon

Electrical Engineering

The purpose of this project is to create a system that automatically converts monophonic music into its MIDI equivalent. Automatic pitch recognition allows for numerous commercial applications, including automatic transcription and digital storage of live performances. It is also desirable to be able to take an audio signal as an input and create a MIDI equivalent score because the MIDI information can be used to replace the original audio signal sounds with any sound the user would like. For example, if a piano composition is entered into the system, the resulting MIDI out could be used to trigger guitar samples. …
