Abstract

For this project, I have worked under the direct supervision of Dr Caldwell and the indirect supervision of Dr Noori. The goal of the project was to produce an interactive museum display of the silver nanoparticle detection and accumulation in tomato plants. Over the last two semesters, I have successfully developed 3D scans of the plant, created and edited 3D mesh designs, and printed complete prints of the plant. I have been able to produce a working prototype for a tomato plant. The project is still ongoing but currently I am working on the next stage of the project which is displaying the movement and accumulation of the nanoparticles on the model. Due to it being on-going, this part is constantly changing right now. There will be more details closer to the RCAC.
