When I'm not in school, I am probably designing, troubleshooting, and assembling my own projects. I use both the internet and the knowledge I've gained in classes like robotics, computer science, and more.
LASER TURRET
What?
Design a X-Y Axis gimbal system to move around a laser based on image recognition.
How?
Using FDM 3d-Printing technology, I fabricated a model and assembled it using a thermoplastic glue.
Results
A fully working laser-redirecting "turret", which uses a camera to detect figures and servos to move the laser near or at that position.
ROBOTIC ARM (Servo-powered)
What?
Design a "Arm" which uses smart servos to maneuver itself and grab items.Â
How?
Using FDM (3d-Printing) technology, I manufactured a model and assembled it utilizing thermoplastic glue (Hot glue).
Results
A working (proof of concept) "arm", controlled by a computer with limited grabbing capability.
