About Me

My name is Elaine Cox and I am currently planning to major in biomedical engineering.

Name Pronunciation

My name is fairly straightforward to pronounce. E-lane Cox, where Cox rhymes with box. Nothing terribly exciting.

Interests

For anyone reading this who is curious about me: I play tennis, I'm very into art projects (writing, drawing, etc; jewelry is my main medium and I want to start a club on campus), I love to bake, hike, and listen to music. I actually have quite the collection of songs between my Itunes, Spotify, and record libraries.

Grand Challenges for Engineering

I decided to pick an article on enhancing virtual reality, as outlined on the Engineering Challenges website. The link that I found actually was found through the site, and outlines the work on a "virtual reality 'matrix'".

The article, again: "Virtual Reality 'Matrix'", Carl Franzen, Bonnier Corporation, posted August 24, 2015, accessed September 13th (Enhancing Virtual Reality).

Favorite Demonstration

I have to say, after watching the demonstrations, I really enjoyed the viewing a penny demonstration, even if it didn't show the entirety of a penny when run. It was just really cool to see the intricacies that the programming can create, especially to the point of a slightly raised figure on a penny. The generation of the color shading was also interesting to see.
