UNSNOOZABLE ALARM CLOCK
INDIVIDUAL ACADEMIC PROJECT 2025.12
INSTRUCTOR: MARTIN DE JODE
In order to sense and react to the environment, the prototype combines environmentally responsive device with human interaction.
It adds the human detecting ability with radar and pressure to the alarm clock of only alarming and snoozing functions, with the display of its sensor data on the screen.
CIRCUIT DESIGN
Many people suffer from sleep inertia, which is that they experience a temporary period of reduced alertness or slower reaction time right after waking, leading them to hit snooze or sleep through alarms. This happens especially often when circadian timing messes up causing sleep debt due to long time overwork and staying up late[1]. While sleep deprivation, sleep apnea, hypersomnia, or depression impairs people’s health.
The unsnoozable alarm clock uses a radar sensor to detect if a person is lying on the bed. It rings the alarm when alarm clock time reaches and the person is present. It would not stop until the person leave the bed.
An improved version is that the pressure pad is added to detect if the person is lying, so the pressure pad is pressed. If the pressure pad is pressed or the person is detected by the radar, the alarm would keep ringing.
FINAL PROTOTYPE
FIRST ITERATION TEST
FINAL ITERATION TEST Ringing Unring
The iteration 1 uses a round corner filleted black box as the case for the alarm clock and the part containing microcontroller and screen connected to the pressure pad. The 2 parts, alarm clock and pressure detector are connected through MQTT, alarm clock as the subscriber of the pressure detector data. Therefore, the alarm clock rings when either the pressure pad is pressed or the human is detected by the mmwave radar.
The iteration 2 changed the design to a UFO with the mmwave radar detector part at the bottom and facing the human being, resembling the UFO absorbing the human away with the gate at the bottom.
CUBOCTAHEDRON POMODORO
INSTRUCTOR: DUNCAN WILSON INDIVIDUAL ACADEMIC PROJECT 2025.10
Pomodoro on the phone is a way of setting timer for homework and rest during my high school life. The Cuboctahedron Pomodoro is well-suited for students who are not allowed to use their phone during homework. It sets and shows time of the timer only with a cuboctahedron and lights.
The core functionality of the Cuboctahedron Pomodoro is using it as a timer for work and rest. Cuboctahedron is a symmetrical geometry representing the bi-mode states of this pomodoro with its 6 identical squares and 8 identical triangles. The larger square surface down sets a 25min clock for work. The smaller triangle surface down sets a 5min clock for rest. In the testing, I use the 20s as a substitution for 25min clock and 10s as a substitution for 5min clock.
Form follows function. - Louis Sullivan
The design follows the design principle that form follows functions in architecture[ Sullivan, L.H. (1896) ‘The Tall Office Building Artistically Considered’, Lippincott’s Monthly Magazine, 57 (March), pp. 403–409.]. This geometry works as an abstract switch with correspondence from shape to time.
The larger surface with 4 edges means a longer time of working mode. The smaller surface with 3 edges means a shorter time of working mode.
INSTRUCTION FOR USERS
Plug in the data cable and connect the Arduino board to a computer.
Upload the script to Arduino through data cable so it would connect to the WIFI and MQTT.
If the battery power is enough, unplug the cable and close the lid to use it. Otherwise, charge it for 30 - 60min. Or just use it with a cable plugged in to test.
Press the button to start detection (chaser runs on the lights) or press again to stop detection.
Place the object with a square face down to start a work session. Or place it with a triangle face down to start a rest session.
Hold a face steady for 10s (demo mode) to confirm; LEDs and the website visualize the state.
Production timings: 25min work, 5 min rest; demo timings: 20s/10s.
MERITS
It connects physical interaction, edge computing, event-driven networks and visualization into a closed loop. Edge-side filtering + hysteresis + dwell time can eliminate “false triggering” at the device end and reduce the noise of uplink data (the value of edge computing).
ROBUSTNESS
Unit-vector normalization + zero-guard
I compute n2 and bail if it’s ≈0, then normalize → prevents NaNs and ensures stable dot products. If I don’t normalize the accelerometer vector, the direction test gets contaminated by magnitude, which breaks thresholds, hysteresis, and dwell logic. Because the thresholds are set assuming that the n2 is normalized.
LPF + re-normalize
Exponential smoothing (LPF_ALPHA) damps jitter; re-normalizing keeps math stable.
Hysteresis (ENTER_TH/EXIT_TH)
It avoids flicker when the score hovers near the threshold. 10-second dwell confirmation (DWELL_MS). It suppresses false triggers from bumps.
Re-arm dip (REARM_DROP_MS)
After confirming a face, don’t consider any new face until the current face’s score has dipped below a lower threshold (EXIT_TH) for at least REARM_DROP_MS milliseconds.
Last-confirmed suppression
This is to ignore the same face immediately after confirming it to prevent repeats.
CIRCUIT DESIGN
EFFECTS OF MODES
WAITING FOR DETECTION
The circuit contains an accelarator MPU6050 for position detection, MKR1010 microcontroller, liPO battery, and a button.
The chaser blocks traverse through the 72 pixels repeatedly.
The veered gradient blink through the pixels from left to right repeatedly. The greyscale monochrome lighten pixels are filled by a gradient from left to right column by column.
The gradient fills the pixels row by row gradually. A row of pink pixels traverses from top to bottom repeatedly.

ROLE: PEOPLE COUNT DETECT CODE AND PROTOTYPE, GAUGE METER DESIGN AND MAKING, AR DASHBOARD DESIGN, GRAPHS
We measure three types of real-time data to provide an insight into the studying/working environment for users. The noise level is sensed by a MAX9814 sound sensor, converting sound amplitude into an absolute decibel. The Wi-Fi signal strength of eduroam, which is the most commonly used network in universities, is scanned by an ESP32 board. The number of people is estimated from the number of devices scanned by the ESP board.
There are two physical devices for our project: a sensor box and a real-time gauge. We aim to provide a flexible user experience that lets users freely choose where to sense the data and where to install the gauge. For instance, users can install the sensor box in the centre of a shared working environment while placing the gauge in a spacious area, facilitating everyone to come and see.

INTRODUCTION
Shared Bike has become a new preferred way of traveling for citizens, however, posing the crowded bike parking on some sidewalks and no bikes on others This is because the urban design does not take the usoge of shared bikes as a factor while the distribution of selfowned bikes is more stable and iargely attected by the owners’ positions. The urban designers should take the distribution or shared bikes into ccnsideration to cope with the problems regarding the wide usage of shared bikes. Therefore, the relationship of urban design and the conditional conventional of shared bikes should be figured out. Since many factors of urban design would intertere the conventional distribution of shared bikes, machine learnina could efiectively help aeneratina the shared bike distribution in a citv from the mastor plan, helping urban designors with the optimization of urban design.

The subject of the impact of architecture on people has been extensively studied from various physical aspects. For example, the structure of buildings, aspects related to construction and building installations, and the installation and use of buildings. These are not the only factors that exist, but there is a wide variety of built environments and overall spaces that have an equally strong impact on people on both a cognitive and emotional level, and both of these operate through closely related systems.
The cognitive-emotional needs of the user,Although many approaches have addressed this architectural dimension, the lack of good practical results is due to the fact that relatively mature and standardizable practical design tools have not been applied yet. In this project, we used a professional EEG device to directly collect the subjects’ perceptions of the scale and material of interior and exterior architectural windows and the size of the space, and used an adversarial generative optimization algorithm to determine the final combination directly from the subjects’ brain waves. It is a more intuitive and data-based design approach.
Inspired by the tradition of ShaanxiGuanzhong houses, neighborhood inthe horizontal vertical organization, the true continuation of life. By choosing to use different types of vertical courtyards to combine the diverse lifestyles of different groups, we have found the entry point by studying the subtle neighborhood relationship between different living objects and using the complementary advantages to achieve a balance of living space. Under this background, we pay closer attention to the fact that modern people pay more attention to the experience of individual space, and each person has different needs and feelings for the same space. We use EEG technology to optimize the spatial environment in real time, trying to get a relatively balanced optimal solution when people have needs at the same time.

Philipsdale is a post-industrial site. The pollurion on Philipsdale are mainly from the steel industry and oil tank leakage. Many rust gadges and fabric from the people who lived, worked, camped on the site are left there.
We hope that by remediating the ecosystem of this site, it can be brought back to life and gain the ability to grow itself.At the same time, we also hope that the process and transformation of making the site healthy can convey the concept of “HEALTH” to the people who come to the site.
FACILITIES ON THE SITE IN THE PAST
The contaminants on the site are mainly Cadmium, Lead, and Chromium.They can cause damage to bone, kidney, liver,stomach, intestine, bladder,kidney, and thyrold.
The contaminants such as arsenic, lead, PCB are mapped corresponding to the location of the spots and facilites the contaminants are from.

CONCEPT
The demolished washburn wire, old rod mill has left the site as a complex brownfield. The contamination on the site are lead and metal. There are several types of landfills on the site, which are soil fill, calcine waste, copper slag area, and air quenched slag area. The industry contamination could be seen from the surface of the ground and the debris on the ground.
There is also a rail road track on the site. Beside the rail road and on the site, there are many vegetation which are very tolerant to saline-alkali soil, such as sumac. They show the impact of industrial history on the ecosystem.
After the steel plants are demolished, we are going to locate the remaining pollutants on the site and give sollutions on these pollutants. We try to engage the remediation with the revival of Philipdale in the form of landscape architecture.
Through mapping the material collected from the site on the map, experience of the site has been materialized.

Burial ground sanctury plays an important role in Chinese people mental need for landscape. As a place for Chinese people to memorize their passed away families and ancestors, it becomes a waste of land as well when population becomes denser and land becomes scarce and expensive in cities. Such sancturies could be combined with brownfield remediation so as to satisfy the mental need of respectful and noble burial ground and ecological value.
This project leverage Genetic algorithm to generate the best solution which could gather runoff in the pollutant areas and embed human bone ash with seeds and nourish trees. In the meantime, with the tree species selection, pollutants could be gathered in the lower points by runoffs.

REVIVING THE WATERFRONT - SHELTER AS FILTER
INDIVIDUAL ACADEMEIC PROJECT 2020.6
INSTRUCTOR: LIQING ZHU
Unpredictable natural disasters such as climate change and sea-level rise are aggravating sites and people’s vulnerability. Thus, landscape design needs to be carried out through resilience.
In my graduation project, Reviving the Riverfront - Shelter as Filter, I researched a cross-estuary next to our school with complex hydrological conditions. The site is also the Confluence Project of Huangpu River’s birthplace, which is of great significance to Shanghai’s urban development history. The site’s unique historical spirit and hydrological conditions are of great value for renovation. The resilient and responsive strategy for flood and storm surge is published to meet the hydro-logical features in form and retain the First Bay site memory. By reshaping the terrain to take the site as a buffer between the river and the villages and towns, the site will shelter surrounding villages and towns from flood disasters to improve people’s adaptability towards flood disasters.
DESIGN STRATEGY
AS SHELTER
Water sensitive infrastructure are embedded in the site, so the stormwater could be stored in the bioswales. When necessary, the flood gate could open and the water could be discharged into the river.
The road and paths on the site are set at different heights, so as to provide various accessibility during flood and normal situations for the tourists. Thus both the safety and accessibility are concerned.
Dynamic - Activity Space
The activity space are set on different height and thus create a landscape of dynamic accessibility.
Vegetation design is based on adaptivity on flood, salt and alkali. Vegetation

Crop circles are thought to be signs left by extraterrestrial civilizations, while in South Dakota, French explorers arrived in 1742-43 and buried a leed plate as a marker. Today’s modular construction of the watchtower will create a landscape in South Dakota that commemorates the development of human architecture. The metabolic capsule observatory is strung together in a modern minimalist frame, and the capsules stretch out in all direction like the branches of the state tree, black hills spruceThe lcokout of this watchtower will provide a sense of enclosure while guiding people to look around in the extreme climate of South Dakota. The specificity of the installation will compensate for the lack of surrounding buildings, attract people to the area, and guide riders to stop here to explore the view from the tower. It will also serve as a place to take photos, and the silver aluminum panels will blend into the snowy landscape in the winter. just like one of the aluminum panels loft by French explorers, as a marker of human society.

TECHNIQUES. BY USING COMPOST GARDENS THAT SHORTEN THE TRANSPORTATION ROUTE OF COMPOST, NEW LOCAL FOOD SOURCES ARE CREATED
WHICH REPLACE FOOD SHIPPED FROM AFAR. THE GARDENS ARE PLACED ON ROOFS AND AT GROUND-LEVEL. THE GARDENS ALSO PROVIDE MATERIALS TO PRODUCE ORGANIC PESTICIDES THAT REPLACE TRADITIONAL PESTICIDES, THEREBY REDUCING THE RELEASE OF CARBON INTENSIVE VOCS. THE COMPOST GARDENS ARE IMPLEMENTED IN EXISTING PARKING LOTS AND VACANT LOTS AND ARE CONNECTED IN A COMMUNITY GARDEN NETWORK. THE PROPOSED RENOVATION OF STREETS INCREASES CARBON SEQUESTRATION THROUGH STREET-SIDE VEGETATION. THESE INTERVENTIONS HELP ALLEVIATE THE URBAN HEAT ISLAND EFFECT, IMPROVE THE MICRO-CLIMATE, AND CONSEQUENTLY, REDUCE THE ENERGY CONSUMPTION
