43 51. Design of Electronic Cymbals and Triggers This project involves designing, testing, and improving a prototype electronic drum trigger while comparing it to commercially available drum triggers. The main aimof the project is to analyse how varying different elements of the prototype affects its performance. Class Mechanical andManufacturing Engineering (Year 4) Project Area Device Design, Digital Signal Processing, Mechanical Design andManufacture, Sensor Technology Project Technology Excel/VB, Solidworks Student Name(s) Conor Fagan Email conor.fagan26@mail.dcu.ie Supervisor Dr Alan Kennedy 52. Jobon Jobon is a web application designed to simplify connecting property owners and tradespeople. The app provides an easy-to-use interface that allows property owners to post jobs and tradespeople to find work without the hassle of searching for contact information andmaking phone calls.
