EECS Fall 2021 Capstone Projects

February 10, 2022

Seniors in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Mizzou conclude their coursework with a semester-long capstone project. These capstone projects allow students to apply what they’ve learned in their classes and work together in teams to study real world challenges.

The experience gives students the hands-on preparation they need to be successful after graduation.

Below are the EECS capstone projects from the Fall 2021 semester.

Computer Science Capstone Team 1

Project: 3D Mapping with Spot
Team Members: Nic Chiolerio, Drew Amsden, Alec Glascock, Conrad Bucholtz, Nick Allegretti, Sarah Sherman
Objective: Construct 3D environments for use with VR using Spot as a moving base and a Livox Horizon lidar camera.
