Based on the detailed engineering done by Torulf Holmström, this was my take on the Super 8/Regular 8 film scanner. The scanner uses both a Raspberry Pi and an Arduino Nano for controlling 3 stepper motors and digitally recording each film cell to preserve precious family memories.

This project was a collaborative effort created with the help of friend and fellow engineer, Drew Canfield under the joint venture IBN Robotics. The goal of IBN Robotics was to bring absurd ideas to life and under that goal, a voice activated batman alarm clock was created. The device runs on a Raspberry Pi and uses speech recognition software to understand multiple voice commands.

ConeBites™ is the brain child of Dr. Charles R. Thomas brought to life by my team who included Brian Willis, James Cappelletti, and myself. The concept initially began as a potential countertop appliance for making bite sized cones but as the project evolved, it became the the proof of concept for a much larger industrial machine for food trucks and restaurants.

Mocked up in ZBrush with a rough model of the internals designed in SolidWorks, this beaver was designed as the repackaging of existing pencil sharpener internal components. The aesthetic was highly inspired by the 1980’s Garfield phones.

Reimagined as a Christmas ornament, this Trivial Pursuit model is based on the character design by the team over at Hero4Hire. Click on the image to link to their website. The model was designed in ZBrush.

This version of Green Arrow comes from the early 2000’s Justice League and Justice League Unlimited TV series’. All but the boots, turtleneck, and tights where built from scratch though the former two were heavily modified. To create the pattern for the body suit, a duct tape mannequin was also built.

This was designed as a full scale replica of the iconic flying broom from the hit 2002 film, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

Designed to be both functional and decorative, this coffee table can use digital maps for D&D and can act as a second screen. The Queen Anne legs were stripped and repurposed from a thrift store find, while all other elements were built from scratch.

Using real film cells from the the classic 80’s film Labyrinth, this display has a laser etching of the films poster and is fully backlit to provide a memorable gift to a very big David Bowie fan.
