Identify Road Signs with Machine Learning
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
Driverless cars use machine learning, a type of artificial intelligence, to identify road signs and other things they encounter on the road, like pedestrians and other vehicles. In this project you will take your own pictures of different types of road signs and use machine learning to identify the signs using a free online tool (no programming is required). You will then attempt to improve your machine learning model so it can identify signs in a variety of environments. Read more
Happy or Sad? Use Artificial Intelligence to Classify Faces
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
Do you think artificial intelligence (AI) is too complex to use? Think again! In this project, you will use AI to teach a web-based tool to classify happy and sad faces, or other objects, poses, or sounds. This experiment requires no coding skills; instead, you will need curiosity, creativity, and a critical eye. Why not give it a try yourself? Read more
The Point of a Parabola: Focusing Signals for a Better Wireless Network
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Have you ever been annoyed by poor Wi-Fi reception for your phone, tablet, or laptop? Do you wish there was something you could do about it? In this project you will learn how to build a parabolic reflector that you can attach to the antenna of a regular wireless router to help boost its signal. Read more
How Does Distance Affect Wireless Signal Strength?
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Are you ever annoyed by a poor Wi-Fi signal? What about when you try to send a text message, and it just won't go through because of poor cell service? Have you ever wondered what factors affect the strength of your signal and the speed of the connection? If so, this project is for you! Read more
Make Your Own Wireless Alarm System
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
Have you ever wished you could have an alarm to prevent your little brother or sister from sneaking into your room? How about an alarm to prevent someone from stealing your favorite toy or from taking cookies out of the cookie jar? In this project you will learn how to program your own customized, wireless alarm systems to send you alerts about whatever you want! Read more
What Materials Can Block a Wi-Fi Signal?
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Have you ever suffered from poor Wi-Fi reception for your smartphone, tablet, or laptop? Certain materials can actually block a Wi-Fi signal; do you think that could be part of your problem? In this science project, you will do an experiment to find out which materials cause the biggest drop in signal strength from a wireless router. Read more
Bits, Bytes, and Bases: Write a JavaScript Binary/Decimal/Hexadecimal Converter
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
This is a challenging first computer science project. You'll learn the basics of how digital devices can represent numbers using only 0's and 1's, and you'll write a JavaScript program to convert numbers between binary, decimal and hexadecimal notation. Read more
Make a Greeting Card Come to Life!
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
A singing monkey? An elderly couple doing the chicken dance? What kind of funny electronic cards do you like to email people? Feel free to dream up your coolest and funniest card ideas, because in this science project, you'll create your own animated greeting card with a simple-to-use programming language called Scratch. Scratch is a programming language that makes it easy to create interactive stories, games, music, and art. When the program you have written is complete, you can even share it… Read more
Storytelling Alice: Once Upon a Time in a Computer-generated Land...
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Up. What do these Pixar films have in common? They are all computer-animated films. While the writers and directors came up with the compelling stories and the kinds of scenes that would best tell the stories, the computer animation experts brought the films to life. In this computer science project, you will easily be able to create your own animated story using a simple computer programming environment called Storytelling Alice. To create your animation, you will… Read more
Blocking RFID Readers from Reading your ID Card
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
If you've ever watched an adult pay for something by simply touching their credit card to a machine at a store, or you've done the same with a bus pass, you've seen an RFID tag in action. An RFID (Radio-Frequency IDentification) tag allows a card to be read by a computer from a short distance away. This is very convenient, but it also allows criminals to steal information about you. For instance, on the subway or the bus, someone standing next to you can use an RFID reader to access the data on… Read more
