WIE From Around the World: Farewell to IEEE WIE Chair Jenifer Castillo! Missions accomplished

November 15, 2022 by Leslie Zucker

The arrival of 2023 means the end to Jenifer Castillo’s role as IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE) Committee chair and she is looking back fondly—but realistically—at two years of accomplishment. “We achieved a lot of great administrative things as a committee that I know the members will not necessarily perceive,” she says, laughing. “Those will certainly help WIE keep growing,” … [Read more...] about WIE From Around the World: Farewell to IEEE WIE Chair Jenifer Castillo!

Pipelining: Attractive Programs for Women. OpenMindEd AI: Broadening knowledge of artificial intelligence.

November 15, 2022 by Leslie Zucker

Olivia Brown and Victoria Helus like to joke that they came of age alongside artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (although technically the concepts were born well before they were). Now in their very early 30s, the women are “paying it forward” in a way, teaching students what they wish they would have learned about the space prior to entering college. The result … [Read more...] about Pipelining: Attractive Programs for Women. OpenMindEd AI: Broadening knowledge of artificial intelligence.

Engineering the Magic

When the Enchanted Tiki Room opened at Disney-land in Anaheim, Calif., in 1963, it was, by all accounts, thrilling. Inside were dozens of talking flowers, totem poles, and birds-colorful macaws, toucans, and cockatoos-and together they per-formed a musical show by dancing and singing along to tunes like the “Hawaiian War Chant.” Huge crowds visited the attraction, excited to get a look at these early Audio-Animatronics-“audio” meaning that sound triggered a series of mechanisms, like cams and levers, that caused a pneumatic valve to open and close, moving an eye, a beak, or part of the body in time with the music. People loved them.
