This is a team project for 16-311: Introduction to Robotics at CMU. This is Miracle10, the Urban Search and Rescue Robot. He was built from Lego Mindstorms (+ some additional thingies). He is able to ascend and descend steep ramps and stairs, survive a two feet drop, as well as traverse “rubble.” TELEOPERATED! He saves survivors by attaching velcro to them!  Features:

For more detailed information on this project, please visit: cmucranegroup35.wordpress.com/ This was a team design project for my 24-262: Stress Analysis class at CMU. My team members were Jason Seepaul and Benjamin Warwick. Problem Statement: Design and build a mechanism that lifts a cylindrical weight, sliding along a vertical post, by at least 2 inches. Teams are limited to using aluminum sheets, a U-channel, a rod, delrin plastic strips, and the provided servomotor and controller. Furthermore, the mechanism must fit in the given course, with no part other than the base (which is clamped to the ground) touching any other surface. It must weigh no more than 20.0 oz.  Here is our crane in action! These robots were created from Lego Mindstorms, and programmed in RobotC. They are class assignments for 16-311: Introduction to Robotics at CMU. The Line Follower
The Segway Robot It's balancing on TWO WHEELS!
The Localization Robot
The Climber The Warehouse RobotThis is a class assignment for 16-311: Introduction to Robotics at CMU. We had only 1 week to build this Rube Goldberg Machine (with so many constraints) ! Though it was really fun working under a lot of pressure. We had to get really really creative! Challenge Statement Construct a Rube Goldberg Machine that transfers a golf ball from one corner of your machine to the next machine
At the end, we tried to connect everyone's RGB Machines. It went terribly!  My very first project at Carnegie Mellon! Project for 24-101: Fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering This car is powered by two mousetraps It is able to complete 1 and 1/2 of a circular course, and won 4th out of over 30 teams! This was my first encounter with the iterative design process!
I spent the last two weeks of my senior year at Loomis Chaffee working on my senior project with two of my great friends: Elizabeth Lee and Seyun Kim. Our device generates electricity as it falls, mimicking the motion of a falling seed. The key idea of the device is the generation of magnetic flux. We named it The HPG: The Heli-Peli Generator. [side note: Our school's mascot is the mighty Pelican!]
While Seyun and Liz worked on the electrical part of our device, I spent time exploring the mechanical portion. This included the "propeller" and its attachment to the pole. I was very excited to work on this project because it was the first time I was able to work with a 3D Printer. I taught myself Autodesk 123D. Furthermore, this project was my first encounter with the design process. It was truly amazing to realize how much our design changed over the period of only two weeks. I also learned about the importance of communication. Since we were working in different rooms, our team had to meet regularly to ensure that we were all on the same page.  Some run-throughs! The project was a great success!
We created a prototype and presented it to the student body. I really enjoyed the project. It was such a great way to cap off my high school life with my best friends. (: |
