Junior Year – Team Project of 2 

• Built a remote-controlled robotic soccer system using L298N motor drivers and DC motors with multi-battery power (~14 batteries).
• Used Blockly-based programming to implement directional movement via IR remote control.
• Assisted in mechanical fabrication, wiring, and soldering for system assembly.
• Contributed to construction of an 8 ft × 3.5 ft soccer field using plywood, turf, and custom goal structures.
• Supported integration of servo-based kicking mechanism and system testing for multi-robot operation.

CSUF Coursework Project for CPSC 121L

• Developed a backend C++ application using object-oriented programming principles to track and manage stored food items.
• Implemented add, remove, update, and display functionality using structured data management.
• Utilized vectors, classes, and file handling to store and process data. Applied debugging and version control using Git and GitHub.
