Students have been working all year with design, programming, and robotics. They will need to rely on their entire skill set for all parts of this project. They will need to research mechanisms that make efficient use of torque. They will need to figure out a design that both combines the mechanisms to create an elevator, and a design that will work with the strengths and weaknesses of our mechanism pieces.
Finally, the students will need to create and test their
elevator to see if it will work. It is a monumental task, but as the students
break it down piece by piece, they begin accomplish it day by day.
