2.1 OVERVIEW OF PROJECT The project consists of a module that is being used for image processing. This is done by employing a Raspberry Pi development board and the convex hull method. The power source is a 230 V AC supply which is being converted to 12 V AC and then to DC using a rectifier circuit. This is powering the relay circuit that is being employed. A robotic arm with 2 active motors has been used to demonstrate the plenty applications that this technology could be used for. The…
In this module we started reading “They Say/I Say “By, Gerald Graff, Cathy Birkenstein, and Russel Durst. Our first two sections were the Introduction: Entering the conversation and “They Say pages 17-51.

Question: Briefly describe the evolution of Hominin brain size and its significance. Humans have large brains, easily more than double the average size of the typical mammal. In the roughly 7 million years that there have been hominins, the brain size has roughly tripled. Most of this growth has occurred in the last 2 million years. The brain size of one of the oldest known hominins, A. Aferensis, measures approximately 550 cc (based on measurements of cranial capacity), roughly equivalent to…
