Research project and tech report contributions

1. personally experienced a real problem in growing plants and introduced the idea of Plantbonne.

2. did a research on google on the importance of house plants and wrote a summary. 

3. wrote a summary about the main feature of the device which is the adjustable clamp.

4. discussed with my teammates and I wrote up the purpose, problem statements and executive summary.(got the information on how to write a proper purpose statements, problem statements and executive summary from past year tech reports)

5. researched on possible innovations and decided on the few crucial features.(i.e. growth lights, water irrigation, ph and moisture sensors, adjustable clamps)

6. researched on the existing plant assisted products and decided to work on Click and Grow.

7. came up and designed the Plantbonne device.

8. crafted the title for our tech report.

Self-introduction email

  Subject: self-introduction   Dear Prof Brad,   I am writing this email to introduce myself to you and I hope that you can get to know me better. My name is Quinian Foo, and I am a year 1 mechanical engineering student studying in Singapore Institute of Technology. I have a diploma in mechatronics, and I have a passion for engineering. Since I was young, I have always been a hands-on person. Fixing things and thinking outside of the box to seek out creative solutions to the problems I faced was enjoyable for me. What makes me unique is that I constantly think of ways to improve life through engineering. I took up design and technology as a subject during my O levels and proceeded to study mechatronics in Temasek Polytechnic. I excelled in engineering design and interned at Singapore Technologies Aerospace where I continued to apply my AutoCAD skills to work. I plan to specialize in design during my third year in university to refine my AutoCAD skills. Using AutoCAD durin...

Task 3: The Importance of communication skills for engineers

  “I contend that we (engineers) are undervalued because of our widespread inability to explain what we do to the general public (and why it is so important). It is one of the hardest goals to accomplish, to be able to boil down difficult concepts into a short and easily understood presentation or elevator pitch.” Marybeth Miceli, President, Miceli Infrastructure Consulting, USA (2011) After some discussion, my partner Shakthi and I have agreed to the statement above. 1.       The job of an engineer is important as they aim to solve the world’s problem by improving and innovating the technologies used in the different industries such as healthcare, finance, etc. 1.       It is important for the general public to know what the engineers do as they promote more job opportunities for the future generation and to bring in more investors into the industry as the world evolves, thus creating more world problems for engineers to so...

reader response draft 4

  Zenmuse X7 is a camera that is made especially for filmmaking and is mainly mounted on the DJI Inspire 2 drone. According to DJI (n.d.), the main features of the X7 are the Super 35 camera with an integrated gimbal, a24-megapixel CMOS sensor, four prime lenses and the Apple ProRes RAW. Filmmakers are now able to film up to 6k resolutions and with great stability. In the article “No Escape” (Holben, 2019), the X7 was praised when it was used to film the police drama 21 Bridges . The article mentioned that the filmmakers used the DJI Inspire 2 with the X7 because of its compactability and its ability to film up to 6k resolution. The filmmakers also made use of the functionality of the gimbal and detached it from the drone as it was small, stabilized, and could be handheld when the filmmakers were chasing the actors during filming.   The Zenmuse X5S ,  X7's predecessor, may be a cheaper alternative , but with the enhanced camera, four interchangeable lenses and the Apple ...
