Long-term projects

Grace Stewart Illustratorbot  - The purpose of The Illustrator Bot, which is operated by a ping sensor, is to draw interesting designs with markers. I wanted the robot to rotate in different circles each time its sensor was activated, pulling markers behind it.

Ella Brait and Samantha Gorton Marble Run 3000 - A marble run with an elevator to life the marbles up and it keeps on going through the course.

Eli Barajas Box of Fear - My project is a box that you reach into and a ping sensor activates a fake "snake fang" on a servo that touches your forearm.

Walker Burdick and Marcos Gulati Wooden Sound Harp - A wooden sound machine / harp that makes musical notes when you block the light.

Connor Meny Jumping Spider - A 3D printed spider on a string that is connected to a base that goes up and down using an Arduino with a ping sensor and a stepper motor. The idea is supposed to startle people while they walk past.

Molly Wilson and Mikaley Wilson Wilson Walkers - Stilts, with a design based one by the Stiltman Company. With room for improvement, these stilts are just one step of a really cool project.

Aaron Foree Quarter box - When you put a quarter on my box, all you have to do is put your hand in front of a sensor and the arm comes and drags it down into an area below

Henry Nguyen The lifter - This remote-controlled robot acts like a forklift and can lift small objects with its linear stepper motor.

Jefferson Glickstein Light-Seeking Tank - This remote-controlled robot finds the brightest light source in a room at the click of a button, and turns its turret to face it. The 3D-printed chassis and turret really help the look of the robot.

Max Rahe Robocar - Remote controlled car that moves on buttons you push. The car has a small backpack to carry items. The car also has two routines. The first is an automotive mode. The second is a random drive mode.
