Week 3: Frame design

Dr. Furman suggested that we should design a frame to showcase our suspension instead of transporting the entire half-scale track to Maker Fair. We will be designing the frame within the next few days. I have also started the code for the Arduino program, in which the gyroscope can be read from the Serial Monitor.

Week 2: Lightning Talk

This week we gave a presentation about our progress for our project. We will be meeting with Dr. Viswanathan to discuss the analysis of our linkage design this week. A link to the presentation is shown below.

Week 1: Spring Semester

The Spring semester has begun and we have taken the time to review our design. The components that need to be machined can be manufactured by ourselves so we will begin to look into purchasing parts for the assembly.
