Ton Duong joins the Geeks FSO Campus workshop!

Ton Duong is entering Stevens Institute of Technology this fall in the Mechanical Engineering program. He is transferring from Essex County College (ECC) where he participated in the ECC LSAMP under Nadia Lvov, Assistant Professor/ECC LSAMP Project Director in the Division of Mathematics and Physics at Essex County College, Newark.

Ton will be helping us with creating content. Here are some of his videos with his comments:

 - This is my favorite piano cover, Kiss The Rain composed by Yiruma: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdJ_RL7WY7Y
 - This is my latest piano video, La Valse D'Amelie composed by Yann Tiersen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Lywpoi3cK0
 - This one is another dance video project that I made last year, The Signal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6gbzSqwfp0
 - And finally, this is one of my most successful performances at ECC Talent Show in Fall 2012: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HL_f9F9vl7s
 
He is also pursuing projects in robotics including working on a team that is building a robotic hand following the design plans of the InMoov project. We will be exploring options for becoming involved in this project in our workshops, and in taking advantage of Ton's participation--and at his suggestion--we are purchasing 2 ea.Arduino Uno Ultimate Starter Kits -- including the 72 page Instruction Books. He is working on a drone project that we want to support also.

Ton is an incredibly gifted and creative person and we are fortunate in having him participate in developing the Geeks FSO Campus.
