Project Statement

This project aims to create a wearable form of immediate comfort for people who suffer from panic attacks. Following research about current wearables for panic attacks specifically, comparing their qualities, and use that information to create a wearable that tracks, and responds immediately to oncoming stress.

؜Why?

؜Panic attacks can be debilitating, and really affect someone's quality of life especially if you suffer with a panic disorder. ؜We want to try and help people reclaim control over their lives.

"I can be writing my name and it’ll happen. My nervous system is just SO dysregulated. It makes me actually unable to form sentences, I am deciding if I should go to the ER, I can’t think, or feel."

"it’s escalated from panic attack for the 15min before I go up on stage, to hours curled up in the hotel bed the morning of a talk, to being physically ill for ten days before even traveling and then leaving the airport because I couldn’t get on the plane."

"I’ve had panic attacks that made me sure something was medically wrong - even after being told I’m healthy."

؜What is this?

The goal of LeetAgent is to create a website similar to LeetCode. The core difference is that LeetAgent will teach the user how to create AI agents and teach them how to use to Agno framework. This can be used by anybody with a basic knowledge of Python and it can help them develop skills to eventually make their own AI agents from scratch. By the end of this OI the goal is to have a website that has a large amount of information about how AI agents are made along with maybe 2-3 examples that the user can test.

؜Prior Knowladge

؜Before this studio I have built AI agents before. More specifically over the summer I had an internship where I worked on building AI agents and pairing them with LLMs to create synthetic traces (Logs of chats). From this I gained experience using frameworks like Agno, Pydantic, and Langgraph. From using these frameworks I found Agno was the easiest to learn and implement so I decided that was the best one to teach first.

؜Precedents

؜Initial Research

؜Initially I was looking into what made LeetCode good at teaching people how to code. Some of the important parts of LeetCode that contributed to learning was the instant feedback, the clear guides, and the ability to talk to others and see how they solved the issues. From this I though that the most important thing that I could do was give clear guides of how to create agents and how they can be used.

FINAL DISHES

Thesis

We wanted to learn how computers work in a way that many others could follow, so we chose Minecraft, one of the most popular video games out there.

Solution 0.94

• Eco-Sort, a device that helps users in public spaces (for this project, NuVu) correctly dispose of waste
• It identifies items using AI and indicates the appropriate disposal bin
• Eco-Sort is more noticeable then a poster
• Makes recycling easier

NuVu Space 0.76

Improper waste management due to:

• Recycling & Poster Fatigue
• Wrong knowledge about recycling
• Lack of time for research

• We hope to increase the range of items that our device and detect.
• We hope to integrate the model, and other design concepts such as part of the user interface into the device.
• We hope to get more user feedback on the device.
• We hope to look into ways the costumer can customize the device for whichever space it'll be in.

Thesis

Our Tomorrow is a poignant stop-motion animation depicting a utopian world that rapidly transforms into a dystopian ruin. The animation serves to shatter traditional notions of a bright future, challenging viewers to consider the consequences of their current decisions in order to shape a better tomorrow.

The stop-motion animation set is crafted from cut sections of polystyrene and painted in acrylic. The modular sections of the city are then mounted with foam pads to a studio made from laser cut cardboard that acts as a light shroud and backdrop. The animation features repurposed LED bulbs as characters, each standing at just five millimeters tall. A pair of needle nose pliers was used to manipulate the characters.

Through its vibrant visuals and powerful messaging, the animation is a warning to the current generation that our present actions have significant implications for future generations. Our Tomorrow encourages the viewer to be vigilant stewards of the environment and to strive for a society marked by harmony and unity so that all may enjoy the innovative gifts of a thriving future.

Visual Storytelling 

At this stage we were exploring different visual styles and architecture to convey diversity, as well as relating to more mundane aspects of current day life in a city. We decided to center on a more industrial semi dystopian vibe. This was also to contrast with the utopia the animation begins with.

Process

We started off with making the box where we made it so that we could easily pan shots with a servo and a oled. also we got consistent lighting with 2 sets of neopixles controlled bye a potentiometer.

Process 

To make the buildings me used recycled materials along with foam and cardstock. To cut the foam we used a foam cutter and to cut the cardstock we used the laser cutter.

Process 

For painting we first took the foam structures and primed them. After priming them we put several layers of acrylic and then added washes and dry brushed areas to add detail.
