Team #1
Project Leader: Michael D. Sciarappa
Project Title: Automatic Wire Stripping Apparatus
Project Description:The goal of this project is to design an automatic machine capable of removing residential/commercial sheath from scrap wire 10-28 standard gauge. A prototype will follow, and the result would point to a profitable investment for scrappers as pure copper exchanges at a higher rate than insulated, sheathed wire.

Project Leader:Jacob Formberg
Project Title: Developing Sustainable Building Technology in Commercial Structures
Project Description: Sustainable buildings, which are also called ‘green buildings,’ means having a significantly reduced impact on the Earth’s resources. It is creating a building that conserves resources (including energy, water, raw material, and land) and minimizes
the generation of toxic materials in its design and operation. Using this approach, this project will focus on one aspect of this developing technology and design a building
that is sustainable.

Project Title:Email by Design – Web-based Branded Email Application
Project Description: Email by Design improves on the idea of branded email by service providers such as Onletterhead. Their implementation uses an applet for Microsoft’s Outlook to create custom emails based on static Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) templates. The proposed improvement is to apply the same theory to a platform independent web application and allow for dynamic template alterations. Due to the required customization of this web email client, Email by Design intends to write its own functional interactive email system. This will encompass such functions as send, receive, contacts, text formatting, user authentication, and template modification.
