OSOYOO AI model car: Fall 2022

In groups of 3, students built and coded an autonomous vehicle. On completion of this project the class applied their knowledge of motors, basic electrical circuits, C (programming language), and sensors. Remote cargo transportation: Fall 2021

As a team of four, students were expected to design a remote system that optimized the distribution of goods. Each team modeled and executed their ideas with SolidWorks software and Arduino electrical hardware. Reverse engineering: Spring 2022

In groups of four, the teams were required to take apart, analyze and redesign simple systems. To do this, students had to understand how the system worked and how the user would interact with the product teaching how to design products for the consumer first.

Third-World country sustainability: Spring 2022

Teams of four were expected to research, redesign, and improve products that would benefit third-world countries. It was necessary to write a report on their findings and ideas encouraging strong write-up skills and precise language use. Extracurriculars
