Jacksonville University Career

The Sentinel      I wanted to share the work that me and my senior design team ( Ian Hunter, Tyler Morris, Christopher Kiener ) have been developing since the start of our senior year.      We have been working on a COVID-19 screening device capable of determining more accurately if the user might be infected with COVID-19 than conventional methods. The goal      The goal of the Sentinel is to give a tool to employers, schools, and other institutions to come back to something resembling normality.       We are using three different sensors to determine possible infection: Analyze temperature Blood oxygen levels Sense of smell to be able to give a more accurate result.       Like every project, we have had our ups and downs in the developing and manufacturing process. Last-minute changes and mistakes pushed tea

For example, I am studying mechanical engineering at Jacksonville University and my first internship was at a civil engineering company      In general, most of the engineers have to deal with similar working environments and tasks. As a ME, you could be designing the newest medical equipment on specific software or actually machining a new part that you are working on. As a CE, instead of creating a piece of new medical equipment you could be designing the infrastructure of a building or inspecting the ground of a new construction. In general, you can relate most tasks with other branches of engineering without getting into sp
