About Me
My name is Zach Bears. I'm currently a freshman at Duke in the EGR103 class. I really enjoy programming so I'm looking forward to the rest of this course.
Name Pronunciation
I prefer to go by Zach (rhymes with tack). Also, my last name is actually pronounced Bears like the animal. I get that question quite a bit.
Interesting Article about efficient Solar Power harnessing
I found this article about using solar energy to produce an energy carrier like hydrogen to be really interesting. I felt it was a change from the common means of harnessing solar power.
Radiative heat transfer analysis of a directly irradiated cavity-type solar thermochemical reactor by Monte-Carlo ray tracing, H.I. Villafan-Vidales et al., Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy, updated 29 August 2012, accessed 29 August 2012 (Grand Challenge)

Current Projects
I just ordered an arduino and a ton of motors and am going to tinker with it for the next few weeks to make a robotic arm that will mimic the motion of my arm. If anyone has advice for using the Arduino, feel free to give it!
