Student Showcase
summary
A roster of student projects and concrete outcomes: a working Pygame drone game with score saving, parallax and an accepted visual bug; a Connect‑4 AI that implements Minimax + alpha‑beta with D3JS visualization and FastAPI endpoints and actually beats friends; an OCR→correction→hardware pipeline using EasyOCR, SimSpell and DistilBERT that drives braille solenoids (EasyOCR → DistilBERT → ESP32 solenoids) in a live demo; a Wordle entropy solver with heuristics; a CRC checker using polynomial division over sockets that detects corruptions; and a P2P LAN app using Diffie‑Hellman, signatures and gossip file sharing that runs locally.
