#badass Woman Project Entry - Caitlin Fotheringham

Your Name: Caitlin Fotheringham

Current home town: I'm currently living in Glasgow, but am originally from Dunblane, both of which are in Scotland.

Did you attend university?  I did/do - I'm about to graduate from the University of Glasgow with a degree in Electronics & Electrical Engineering.

Current Job: Student - I won't be able to say that for much longer!

 

Your favorite electronics projects from element14 presents or youtube:

I enjoy many of element14's project videos because they are so educational, but a particular favourite is the 'FPGA MIDI Music Synthesiser'. As well as element14's projects, I admire the ingenuity of DIY Perks' work and tutorials by the likes of GreatScott!

 

Your project:

In light of the current corona virus pandemic, I made a handsfree soap dispenser that counts down from 20 seconds, sings a song about hand-washing - performed by yours truly, and displays roughly how many hand-washing sessions are left in the bottle - all to keep you entertained and well informed as you wash.

All is revealed below.

    Cool project, had to use a hand sanitiser in a garden center recently .. very dodgy low elbow controlled dispenser almost... preferred to use my foot on it instead! lol :P

     

    I added you to a YouTube playlist here to keep track of channels/videos:

    Thought I recognised Glasgow from the view from your windows.

    My daughter went to Uni in Glasgow.

     

    Nice project -  good luck with the job hunting - will be an asset in interviews to offer to bring your own soap dispenser image
