The Visit: Producing an Independent Film with Non-Film Majors
No full textAn independent film project, The Visit, involved non-film-major students who shared a passion for storytelling and filmmaking. We developed a compelling story and assembled a team of actors, cinematographers, editors, and sound designers. With limited resources and a shoestring budget, we had to be resourceful and innovative in our approach to filmmaking. The result is a gripping and suspenseful film that explores complex themes of guilt, redemption, and the consequences of our actions. The film offers a fresh take on the classic home invasion genre, blending elements of horror and suspense to create a unique and unforgettable cinematic experience. Throughout the process, valuable lessons about collaboration, problem-solving, and the power of storytelling were learned. We are proud of our accomplishments and grateful for the opportunity to bring our vision to life
Portraiture Education: Utilizing a Digital Online Canvas for Developing Leadership
No full textThis poster serves as an instructional leadership canvas for how to create an authentic forum via the use of artifacts for developing leadership. This poster illustrates portraiture methodology as the palette for memorializing and narrating the lived experiences of educational leadership. Portraiture is a relatively new research methodology that includes aspects of narration, ethnography, and phenomenology for examining the shared experiences of individuals. Portraiture education employs personal artifacts via a digital storyteller’s online canvas for presenting authentic educational experiences. Narration and exemplar artifacts are illustrated and examined for exploring innovative curricular design, interdisciplinary teaching and learning, and the conditions required for creating a community of practice that supports all learners. The utilization of artifacts provides authentic exemplars that educational leaders can utilize with teachers for exploring reflective practice and supporting a culture for learning. The use of authentic artifacts serves as a storyteller’s canvas for presenting the blending of disparate disciplines to promote innovative instructional design. The experiences presented resulted in the creation and establishment of welcoming, innovative learning environments that consider the social, emotional needs of learners, and provide multiple modalities for learning. Utilizing artifacts through portraiture methodology creates an interactive, ongoing research forum that presents the shared journeys of learners, teachers, leaders, parents, and community members to create “portraits” of meaningful educational experiences

Computer Vision for Robot Using AI
Get PDFRobotics is a multidisciplinary field that involves the design, construction, programming, and operation of robots. Robots are mechanical or electromechanical devices that are outfitted with sensors, processors, and actuators to carry out tasks autonomously or under the direction of a human. Robotics offers several benefits and uses in a variety of fields and industries. Robots can carry out repetitive activities with great accuracy and reliability. They can produce products with consistency in quality by performing operations with extreme accuracy.
Our anticipated approach merges traditional methodologies with forward-thinking innovations. Central to our design philosophy is the integration of tools such as Android Studio, GitHub, Git, and the Java programming language. We propose a robot with a constrained starting volume of 18x18x18 inches and a material flexibility of up to 0.25 inches. Integral to its design will be a web camera to enhance navigation capabilities, with the inclusion of April Tags for a comprehensive understanding of the game field\u27s layout. The control system, a cornerstone of our design, is expected to feature an Android device interlinked with two team controllers, a driver station, and a Wi-Fi-enabled robot controller, with potential interfacing through the REV Robotics Expansion Hub or the REV Robotics Control Hub.
Our strategy envisions a robot capable of navigating the competition\u27s multifaceted challenges, including a 30-second autonomous period, a two-minute driver-operated phase, and a climactic 30-second endgame. For robot manipulation learning, we provide a vision-based architectural search method that identifies relationships between high-dimensional visual inputs and low-dimensional action inputs. Our method automatically creates structures as it learns the task, coming up with fresh ways to associate and attend picture feature representations with actions and features from earlier levels. Comparing the obtained new architectures to a current, high performing baseline, they show superior task success rates, sometimes by a significant margin

FundRaiser
Get PDFUsing the Fund Raiser, a web tool, event administrators and organizers may raise money from a variety of sources for various events they have listed. Therefore, a fund-raising effort might be used to develop various types of campaigns, gather money, and compile a list of contributors who made contributions in a visible timeline.
Finance plays a crucial part in everything from effectively arranging an event to giving financial relief to those who have been affected by various natural disasters. Therefore, Fund Raiser may serve as a facilitator for effectively generating money for various campaigns and support activities to promote and encourage more and more people to donate and provide financial support via websites accessed over the internet.
Crowdfunding is a method of raising money for a person or group by soliciting donations online from family, friends, acquaintances, strangers, corporations, and other sources. The authorized administrator at the federal or national level will either approve or disapprove any crowdfunding campaign or event that is created. In the end, each element plays a critical role in convincing people to donate to online crowdfunding initiatives. The results of this study indicate that factors related to people\u27s social lives may be detrimental since people tend to believe that those with a high degree of social life are more likely to choose to assist others in person as opposed to using an online platform. Roles for this application are Users who start campaigns – need to set up an account with the website, Donors – anyone who has access to the fund-raising page, Administrator – who manages users and campaigns.
Through the study of data, it has been found that social spirit in the community has a negative effect, but religious concerns, the influence of campaigns, and platform upgrades have a positive impact and also it would be a great added advantage if the application has 3 roles
