URCAD Sneak Peek: Jaylan Hall A running, jumping robot! Jaylan is a URA Scholar, Computer Science and Electrical Engineering major, AND a visual artist. He will present his research, "Development Of A Custom Robotic Actuator - Quadruped Robot Project" at URCAD Online 2020! 

Abstract:
The quadruped robot from last year's URCAD utilized off-the-shelf servo motors to perform simple movements such as standing, walking, pivoting, and a unique walking/wheeled feature. For the new version, a quicker, more forceful actuator is needed in order to achieve running and jumping behaviors. The current market options are either too expensive, require too much power, or in most cases, both. To solve this problem, a custom-designed, fully 3D printed, robotic actuator was developed, capable of outputting fast, forceful movement. Costing under $40 to prototype, this actuator presents a compact size, low weight, easy assembly, low power requirement, simple programming, finished with an attractive aesthetic. Amid the version 3 redesign, the motor control system was made independent of the robot’s higher level control, allowing it to allocate more processing towards its higher level behaviors (inspired by mammal nervous system). In addition, an artistic touch was highly more integral throughout the design process, pushing away from the industrial build of the majority of current robotic systems. The next steps for this project involve development with basic and intermediate maneuverability, environmental perception and navigation, and most excitingly, exploring the unique fusion of emotion and logical reasoning.

You can see Sirius at URCAD Online, starting this Wednesday!

Abstract:
Sirius is a 1:07 minute digital animation about a girl walking her dog at night, enraptured by the starry sky. This is a self-portrait about how I love stargazing and find myself doing it while walking my dog. I also created this piece as a way of showing how the feeling of fascination or admiration can make one forget about the world around them. The audio is original with sound effects coming from the actual sources in real life. The music in the film, Mariage d’Amour, was covered by Tracy Yang; this piano piece added an air of beauty to the transition scene. The rest of the musical elements were created using Ableton Live 10. Rotoscoping and hand-drawn animation techniques were utilized and done entirely with Adobe Photoshop. I shot video reference of myself and my dog as part of the process, which allowed me to capture both of our movements and personality realistically. It was important to make sure the two techniques of hand-drawn animation and rotoscoping combined seamlessly and that the transition to imagination can be understood. The result is an engaging animation that portrays this experience in a way that cannot be done in real life.

High Definition Real Time Zoetrope (HDRTZ)
Presenters: Sam Herring, JD Byron, Silas Dunigan, Matt Vermont

You can see it at URCAD Online, starting April 22nd!

Abstract:
The High Definition Real-Time Zoetrope (HDRTZ) was designed and constructed to take a stationary artwork and rotate it via image processing to create the illusion of animation. The system was developed as part of the 2019-2020 Computer Engineering Capstone course. The HDRTZ was created in collaboration with UMBC professor and artist Eric Dyer, who created the artwork and helped design the system. The HDRTZ samples a camera feed and rotate the image via software running on the NVIDIA TX2. The image rotation is controlled by an external crank that outputs a voltage proportional to its input. The software then uses rotational algorithms to rotate the image appropriately based on the voltage produced by the crank. Simultaneously, an audio track is sampled at a rate proportional to the crank input to add further interactivity to the art. The system was configured and initialized through an external web application responsible for the centering and masking of the displayed image.  The HDRTZ is intended to be installed in a public setting, so the system was designed to be simple enough that an unfamiliar user can quickly figure out how to interact with it.

We are so excited to have her on-board as Office Supervisor! COVID-19 hasn't stopped the Career Center from welcoming Donna Camp Benner, our new Office Supervisor, to the team! We wish that we could be together in Math/Psych 201, but we are fortunate to have her on-board during this crazy time. Feel free to say "hi" virtually (dcamp@umbc.edu) and be sure to stop by and welcome her once we are on-campus! Learn a little bit more about Donna by checking out her profile below. 

Tell me a little about yourself. Where are you from?

I relocated to Catonsville 20 years ago from a small town north of Pittsburgh called Aliquippa, and yes, I'm a Steelers fan. My love for community stems from my roots there and my strong family values, much like the UMBC community that I am growing to love!

Where did you go to school? 

I graduated from Aliquippa High School, home of many famous graduates there such as Jesse Steinfeld, Henry Mancini, Mike Ditka, Ty Law and Tony Dorsette, to name a few.

What did you do before coming to the Career Center?

I worked for Anne Arundel Workforce Development, part of the Workforce Branch of  Anne Arundel County Government and MD Department of Labor. I enjoyed my varied roles over the past 10 years as a career advisor, training facilitator, business services rep and career center manager. Every day was a new adventure and I loved being part of getting people back to work and helping them to advance in their careers.

What will you be working on at UMBC?  

As the Office Supervisor, I will be providing administrative and budgetary support to the director and staff members in the Career Center, Math/Psych 201. My duties also include managing the front office, student staffing/recruiting and training.   

What are you most excited about for your new role?

Besides getting to be part of the UMBC community, I’m excited to work with such an amazing and supportive Career Center team, and use my skills and experience to support both staff and students in achieving their goals. 

Do you have a secret talent?

I wish I could say I have a secret talent, but, on a silly note, I accidentally drove into a presidential motorcade (pre-911), drank champagne out of the Stanley Cup, and got kissed by Shamu.

What was your first job or internship?

My first job as a teenager was cleaning a small credit union, where I set off the alarm a time or two. But, my first internship was at a major bank as a teller/office assistant, which led to a permanent job offer as the secretary to the Vice President.

How are you spending your COVID-19 quarantine?  

I’ve been learning more about UMBC and my role while working virtually. In the past month, I started my new position, had my wedding reception cancelled, still got married in a private ceremony (me, my new husband and the pastor), prepared to sell my house and moved into a new place. At least I can say I’m never bored and although it has been a little stressful, I feel blessed!
