Final







[box] - almost complete


We have created four boxes that move up and down. They also change color. In order to achieve this we had to remake everything from scratch. This time we used different joints for the scissor lifts to reduce friction. This allowed us to use one servo per box.

The trouble now is managing the wires and keeping it from catching onto the scissor lifts. Assembling it is the last step but it is becoming very tedious and frustrating.

[box] Presentation

[box]







We were unable to present what we planed to have ready for the presentation. We were able to get one box working. It is still rough because of the structure but the program did what it was suppose to. We are going to continue to try and finish it by Wednesday. In order to get the one box working we had to use two servos in order to get enough power to lift both scissor lifts.
