Hardware Design Capstone, CSE 477, 2006 Windows Media

Hardware Design Capstone. Students focus on the design and implementation of a large project, which they work on in teams of three or four. They use a combination of hardware and software components including embedded processors, FPGAs, sensors and communication devices to implement their project. Students experience the entire design process from concept to running prototype in the space of a single quarter, including a project proposal, design reviews, and final product documentation / demonstration.

Tablet PC Capstone, 481RA, 2005 Windows Media

Tablet PC Capstone. Students work in teams to design, implement, and release software projects -- utilizing the Tablet PC as the platform -- to distribute ink between multiple Tablets, editing handwriting, and recognize handwritten diagrams. Projects include "Shared Notes", "Scribbles", and "Diagram Recognition". (Low bandwidth version here. High bandwidth version here.)

Software Capstone Design, CSE 481, 2004 Windows Media

Students work in substantial teams to design, implement, and release a software project involving multiple areas of the CSE curriculum. Emphasis is placed on the development process itself, rather than on the product. Teams are expected to develop a work plan, and to track and document their progress against it. This year's projects include: "Something Attacks"; "Star Gopher 32"; and "Pac Inverted Tulip". (Low bandwidth version here. High bandwidth version here.)

Robotics Capstone Design, CSE 490, 2004 Windows Media- High Windows Media- Low

This capstone course focuses on robotics projects in which groups of 3 students program robots to perform certain tasks. The groups program Sony AIBO robots using the RoboCup Challenge as example domain. The ultimate goal of the RoboCup project is by 2050, develop a team of fully autonomous humanoid robots that can win against the human world champion team in soccer.

Digital Systems Capstone Design, CSE 477, 2004 Windows Media- High Windows Media- Low

In CSE 477, CSE students collaborated with Industrial Design students to create several digital systems design projects, including: SAVI, a shopping assistant for the visually impaired; HERMES, hospital information exchange; SCANNER RUN, dynamic children's games; and LINGO PAL, a language learning tool.

Software Capstone Design, CSE 481, 2003 Windows Media

In CSE 481, student teams create a working video game prototype from scratch. This year's projects include: "Monkey Maximus" a multiplayer action game where you will guide Maximus the gladiator monkey through his path of revenge on his former captors; "Fusion", taking space battles to a new evolutionary plane; and "Sublings", an arcade style game fashioned around the addictive action of smashing funny little creatures.

Embedded System Design, CSE 476, 2001 Windows Media- High Windows Media- Low

CSE 476 is a system building course that provides students with a complete experience in embedded system design. Student teams design, simulate, construct, debug, and document a substantial project.

Digital Systems Design Capstone, CSE 477, 2001 Windows Media- High Windows Media- Low

In CSE 477, students use our laboratories to design, simulate, construct, and debug a major project that includes hardware, software, and communication components. Students study the use of embedded processors in digital system design and interfacing techniques. They also write and debug real-time reactive software.

Software Capstone Design, CSE 481, 2000 Windows Media- High Windows Media- Low

In CSE 481, student teams create a working video game prototype from scratch.This year's class incorporated collaboration with art teams from area high schools.

Hardware Capstone Design, CSE 477, 2000 Windows Media- High Windows Media- Low

Led by instructor Carl Ebeling, students of CSE 477 design, simulate, construct, and debug a substantial project that includes hardware, software, and communication components. Students learn the use of embedded processors in digital system design and interfacing techniques.
