CSU Chico Engineering Capstone Collaboration

Alex Wallace 

This year Diling Zhu has sponsored the collaboration project (many thanks Diling!), which is to develop a prototype system for determining interaction point alignment using machine vision. In early March, the CSU Chico Engineering Capstone Collaboration project team visited XPP to do some final fit measurements around the interaction point for installation of their project later this year.

For the past five years LCLS departments (SED and ME) have sponsored projects with the Mechanical/Mechatronic Engineering departments of CSU Chico for their engineering degree capstone. Each year the collaboration project offers a chance for  LCLS to develop prototype concepts, or even to offload a manageable portion of work to a team of 4-5 students and a faculty advisor (for a nominal fee + M&S). More importantly these projects offer us a chance to discover talented candidates that we can hire. If you have an idea for a project, please contact Alex Wallace for details. On a final note, this year we are excited to announce that we hired another student from the collaboration project, Mitchell Cabral. He will join ECS as a control system integrator in June.
