Working with one other undergraduate student, we developed an electromechanical startle response device to assist in the heat stress research of dairy cows. Through the use of microcontrollers, bluetooth modules, umbrellas, and actuators, we were able to produce a system of four remote (smartphone) controlled devices.

Overall, I was responsible for the mechanical and electrical design, assembly, and testing of this project. This device was successful in its first iteration of agricultural testing (over 50 trials), and is still being used in research today!
