Design and Manufacturing I
Design and Manufacturing I is a higher level Mechanical Engineering course which introduces students to basic shop tools, design planning, and ingenuity. The semester revolves around building a robot which will compete for points in the final competition during the last week of school. Unfortunately, the semester I took this class was affected by Covid-19 and we were all sent home mid-March. This forced the class online, so we re-focused our project around learning CAD. While we weren’t able to have a final production and competition, we did continue building our designs in the virtual world allowing us to get a better foundation in CAD than we would have.

Low Fidelity Prototypes Testing Lifting Mechanisms
CAD for Final Robot Design
My robot could fit in a 1 cubic foot box when fully collapsed, and could extend up three feet when fully extended.
