The groups finally have gotten their hands dirty as they begin prototyping in the Oshman Engineering Design Kitchen (OEDK). It’s amazing how designs will succeed or fail once you starting modeling them. From drill presses to k’nex, floaties to cardboard, the room is teeming with exitement . The forearm team has a set of accelerometers they’re experimenting with. The wheelchair group is experimenting with three dimensional gears, and the surrey and roof teams are continuing to refine their prototypes as the designs are finally starting to become a reality.
