Formal letter of introduction

-
Dear Professor Brad,     My name is Janaishwaran and this is my letter of introduction. I graduated from Temasek Polytechnic with a diploma in Electronics in the year 2020. I specialised in Robotics and automation. As I progressed through my diploma, my interest in Robotics was piqued after discovering I could automate several tedious tasks and integrate them into a physical system. Creating a prototype of a machine controlled by a mobile device for my final year project. It truly opened my eyes to the world of robotics. It made use of Bluetooth for connection, a servo motor, and a pixy camera that identifies and grips specific colour blocks. Following this, the machine can transport the blocks according to the user's input. Using Arduino to integrate the software with hardware, I found it fascinating to have my robot behave the way I coded it to .     Securing an internship at the third-largest global EMS and ODM company, Flextronics, expanded my knowledge of how...

Module Reflection and Project Learning

-
  Module Learning This module has helped with shaping my critical thinking by reframing my concept of what constitutes. My initial goals were to be able to master effective oral presentation skills, as well as to be able to evaluate arguments, ideas, and credibility throughout this module. I can safely say that even though I wasn’t able to successfully meet my goals, I have made significant improvements when it comes to these aspects I have mentioned above. When evaluating arguments, I have tried to improve by organizing my thoughts clearly in my head before delivering them during a group discussion. Practice makes perfect and I believe that mastering the art of presentation skills is going to take more than just a few months in this module. It is such a beautiful aspect as even just simple placements of hands during a presentation can affect the public’s perspective of one’s confidence levels. I enjoyed reading the different tactics he employed to elicit student involvement, and...

NASA/Ingenuity Mars Summary/Reader response Draft#2

    NASA’s Mars Helicopter, Ingenuity Part 1: Summary Description On February 18, 2021, NASA’s Mars helicopter, Ingenuity, along with their rover, Perseverance, successfully landed in Jezero Crater, Mars (Gohd, 2021). Ingenuity is the first aircraft to have flown on Mars. According to Mimi Aung, Ingenuity’s project manager at NASA, it had been fully tested on Earth before it took off for its Mars mission. Ingenuity was not designed to help with research on Mars. Its main responsibility is to test flight on Mars and prove that flight is possible on Mars. Ingenuity faced several challenges on its mission to Mars, such as attempting flight in Mars' thin atmosphere and dealing with wind and dust storms, as well as receiving enough energy through its solar panels to power itself. Ingenuity succeeded with the first three flights, flying each subsequent flight to higher altitudes and for longer durations. However, on its fourth flight attempt, the helicopter failed to shift to "fli...
