Blogger is having a hard time supporting my videos :(

I created code to combine the components together and have them all work according to the photo-resistor values (whether its dark or light). The most challenging part was integrating the piezzo and the servo motor. It was hard to get it moving with the music loop.

Project 2 - I'll have nightmares about gears now

Image
  I have uploaded several videos about my gear testing progress to this google drive folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1VtR3xDiZZaTf3fNgudUu_1eEK-AHQPlw?usp=drive_link I learned a lot about gear ratios (how to slow down you add small gear on motor and large gear on objects), gear teething, and the extreme importance of a set screw.

I grew up playing Nintendo games and as an only child, they brought me a lot of fun. I met my boyfriend Ryan through playing games and wanted to create an automata for his favorite game Zelda for his upcoming birthday.  I was inspired by several wooden and lego automata projects for Zelda [1][2]. One key takeaway from this project was KISS, "Keep it Stupid Simple". From the get go I choose an overly ambitious project for the timeline, so I decided to scale back and focus on the wave motion. I have never done a project like this before and I was excited about the possibilities. I originally 3D printed my cam shaft out of Nylon; however, cam circles were too small and the spacing was off. For the final project, I laser cut my cam circles and offset them from another to create a wave motion. For my hand made pieces, I ...

This project was inspired by my mom who was a ballerina growing up. My mom is one of my biggest supporters and brings light to the dark. Therefore, I will be creating a ballerina that starts dancing and lights up an LED when it senses the dark using a photoresistor.
