This section contains all the personal projects I'm currently working on or have worked on/finished (who am I kidding they're never finished). Each directory should have it's own README with details about what the project is and the steps I took to do it. Some of my personal favorites are:
This project was inspired by Marvel's blockbuster hits (Avengers and their derivatives) and because of a gift I had made previously for an old high school friend. There isn't any functional point to this, mostly just for sentimental value.
The design revolves around the use of Tritium which is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. It's not radioactive in the sense that it'll cause damage, just enough to create some cool glowing effects. The radiation is low levels of Beta-particles and is not damaging unless ingested (so just don't eat the vials). Using this as a core, I created geometric designs corresponding to each stone and their back story/ability.
Here's a picture of the full assembly. The metal colors are pretty off due to Inventor having weird colors...

This project is like 3 years in the making. All it's supposed to do is control some simple LEDs and a water pump for a generic plant in a pot. This is supposed to be like a simple arduino project, but it's taken me 3 years and 3 iterations to actually get it done. To be fair, each time I'll work on it for around a week, get distracted for 6 months and come back to it.
But it was a fun project to work on and I think the recent revision looks pretty cool.
This project is the Underwater ROV team 2018-2019 circuit board files. These circuits were specially designed so that they would fit inside a cylindrical pressure housing. Because of this we were able to use a standard PCB footprint for all our designs . All of these were either designed by me or with me as the team lead.
The basic idea was to abstract certain, similar components of an Underwater ROV onto these circuit boards and then to connect them all together inside a pressure housing. These components included: Brushless motor control, power supply/delivery, sensor integration (pressure, distance, angular rotation), ground station signal delivery and actuator control.
