Noah Brooks
Hardware Team Leader
I am an Electrical Engineering undergraduate student that graduates at the end of the spring 2022 semester. I have been enlisted in the United States Navy for about 5 years as an Electrician's Mate (Nuclear) and after graduation I will commission as a Surface Warfare Officer. I have worked on the Hardware Team to help create the first prototypes, and much of my focus as been on interfacing between the components over WiFi for controlling the robots. I enjoy going to the gym, bowling, and learning fun facts.
Dalton Holdredge
Hardware Team Member
I am an undergraduate student majoring in Electrical Engineering with minors in Biology and Military Studies. I have been enllisted in the United States Navy for a little over 5 years as an Electronics Technician (Nuclear), and after graduating in May of 2022 I will commission as a Surface Warfare Officer (Nuclear). I have been working on the Hardware Team to design and build the robot and arena prototypes, and my focus has been on training and implementing the embedded machine learning for the object detection in our project. When I am not in front of a computer screen trying to get code to compile, I enjoy running, bouldering, and hiking.

Hardware Team Member
I am a senior double majoring in Computer and Electrical Engineering. For the past six years I have served as a Nuclear Electronics Technician in the United States Navy. After graduation I will return to the fleet as a Nuclear Surface Warfare Officer. I am on the hardware team focusing on the prototype design and building methods. My wife and I have a 1 year old son and are adopting three brothers towards the end of 2021. I enjoy camping and hiking in the mountains.
Tejas Agarwal
Hardware Team Member
I am an undergraduate in Electrical Engineering and will be graduating
in May 2022. I am currently looking for jobs and hope to get one soon. I
plan to pursue my Master's degree soon however would prefer to get some
professional experience before that to get a better understanding of what
specialization I want to pursue. I also help my father in his business during
the free time.
For this project, I have working with hardware team and
helping in designing the robot however, my main contribution so far is designing
the arena for the game and look forward to take over some more challenging task in
the future.
Joseph Holtkamp
Software Team Leader
I am an undergraduate studying Software Engineering. When I
graduate in May 2022, I will begin my job at ACT as a Software
Engineer I as a member of their Data Engineering Solutions team. I
am currently interning with the Iowa DNR as a Software Developer.
In my free time, I can be found disc golfing, playing guitar,
camping, or coding.
For this project, I have enjoyed
learning Dart and Flutter with which our multi-platform
application will be built. I have enjoyed exploring and going
through the architecture process of our full-stack application,
applying much of what I have observed in my internships and in
outside projects.

Software Team Member
I am an Computer Engineering undergraduate that graduates in the upcoming spring semester. I will begin my job at John Deere as a Software Developer. I am interning at NISC working on their provisioning and software solution side. In my free time I like to play volleyball, work with linux, and hike. I'm currently working the Software Team and help create UI's for user interaction with the robots. I hope to create a project that will bring joy to future computer engineers coming to Iowa State.
Cheyenne Smith
Software Team Member
I am a Computer Engineering student at Iowa State University. I have an interest in embedded systems and networking. During my studies and outside of them, I have experience in communicating on small teams of other students or faculty members for various projects. As well as, have some experience with Raspberry Pi programming and a passion to keep expanding my knowledge base with new information.
Jordan Suby
Software Team Member
I am an undergraduate in Computer Engineering who will be graduating in Spring 2022. I enjoy learning about how both hardware and software components work conceptually but I much prefer software when actually working on a project. For this project I have been learning flutter to help us compile a multi-platform app, which is exciting for me because app developement is something I have wanted to learn more about and possibly work on in the future. In my free time my favorite hobbies are reading, watching sports, and playing video games.
