Hobby Projects

Below are some of the various hobby projects I've worked on over time, in no specific order. If you want to see more about a specific project, just click on the image or title to go to the page for that project.

Chess and Chess AIs in Python

Started earlier in 2022, this was a project I wanted to complete to gain skills in many areas of Python. This includes organizing large projects, making use of custom functions, making my own GUI, etc. There are two main goals I have associated with this project -- 1. Make a bug-free chess game engine all on my own and 2. Use my custom-made game as a platform to create and test chess AIs. Both of these have been largely completed, though there is still room for perfection.

Custom Disc Engine Design

Started in one of the many notebooks I have for my various project ideas, this design is one of many I've experimented with. Currently, this design is my favorite as it accomplishes the main goal I had -- specifically, to have a custom combustion engine design, but based on circular motion, unlike traditional piston-based engines.

Custom Radio Circuit

This project was completed as a final project for a physics lab class I took early in 2022. For this project, we were allowed to independently choose what we wanted the circuit to do. I have experimented with many kinds of circuits before, thanks to the electrical engineering tools of my own I have, but I haven't ever tried a radio. This project satisfies a few goals I had -- one, to see how fast of an oscillator I could make from my skills, and two, to use that oscillator to make a morse code-style transmitter and reciever.
