Tyler Newman

A computer engineering student at the University of Central Florida, is primarily interested in circuit and PCB design specifically in the field of embedded systems and IoT devices. Throughout his time at UCF he has been introduced to embedded systems programming, testing, and design in courses such as embedded systems, digital systems, junior design, and electronics. After this introduction from UCF he has pursued more knowledge of the subjects and pushed into the world of IoT devices, something that will soon be a massive thriving industry. This interest and experience in embedded computing will be beneficial in the development of the smart mirror and its embedded components. He will be designing many of the schematics present in the project as well as PCB components for certain project elements. He hopes that this project will be another steppingstone to the future and add highlight the skills he's acquired while studying at the University of Central Florida.

Axel Ortuga

A computer engineering student attending the University of Central Florida. Axel has an interest in robotics and robotic vision. He is also interested in smart devices and the future of the industry. This interest has manifested itself into this smart mirror project. Axel plans to enter the industry and further develop his interests before returning to academia as a graduate student.

Jonathan Martin

An electrical engineering student, attending the University of Central Florida. His interest is in in renewable energy when entering the industry Jonathan plans on trying to develop new ways to produce renewable and sustainable energy and implement them across the globe Jonathan Currently works at a component testing facility where he is learning skills in test engineering. And also, Metrology where he learns about Industry standards

Jacob Williams-Moore

A computer engineering student at the University of Central Florida, developed his love for computers and technology at a young age. Having access to computers and video games consoles since he could remember, it was natural to become a key hobby of his. When starting college, Jacob wasn't too sure of which major to choose but ultimately decided upon Computer Science. Though his interests in computers were more on the hardware side, he progressed through the first two years of his degree and learned basic coding. During year three, Jacob switched majors from Computer Science to Computer Engineering in hopes of learning more about computer hardware instead of software. This decision may be seen as redundant after Jacob getting internships in the software engineering field. He has learned to appreciate computer software while keeping his initial interest in computer hardware as a personal hobby. Jacob's subject related and professional experience mostly consists of front-end development using common frameworks such as Angular and React for web-based applications. This experience helped extend into some of his interests, but he also continued to collect computer parts and build computers to fulfill his initial preference towards hardware.
