Paige Hall

I am a driven third year engineering physics student working towards a Bachelor of Applied Science and Professional Engineering designation. I am very interested in expanding my software and coding experience in a professional setting, as well as gaining exposure to electrical and computer engineering work in general. I have significant experience working collaboratively in professional team environments and enjoy a team atmosphere. In my free time I enjoy playing beach and indoor volleyball, as well as traveling to Europe and the US.

Autonomous Robot Building Competition - Summer 2023

As part of my second year engineering design project course, I worked in a team of 4 to build a fully autonomous robot intended to drive a race track course and collect specialty items along the route. My team competed against other teams from for my program and tied for 5th out of 17 teams.

• Designed drive and power distribution control circuits, including the H-bridge, microcontroller board, and optical sensor board
• Used Onshape to design the chassis of the robot to meet out design specifications and competition requirements

Simulated Robot Detective Competition - Fall 2023

As part of my third year engineering design project course, I am currently working in a team of 2 to build a simulated robot using the ROS framework on a linux OS to complete a track in a simulated world and collect clues along the way. This project utilizes different machine learning techniques such as neural networks for image processing and reinforcement learning for steering and control of the simulated robot. 

Fuel Cell Emulation Circuit- Fall 2023

Working as a member of the UBC SuperMileage design team in the electrical division, I am currently designing a circuit intended to emulate the behavior of a hydrogen fuel cell as designed by the SuperMileage powertrain division. The purpose of this circuit is to allow the electrical division to test and troubleshoot the entire electrical system - including safety, control, and telemetry boards among others - without using the fuel cell at all. This allows the electrical division to work in parallel with the powertrain division and allow for easier testing.
