Sugar Glider Transporter
Students in Olin's Design Nature class are tasked with creating an interactive bio inspired game appropriate for elementary school aged kids using a small budget and limited resources. At the end of a month of preparation this game is then demonstrated to real life fourth graders whose opinions factor into the final grade of the students. For this project my team created a system of launching sugar gliders (think Australian flying squirrels) in a competitive teamwork based game. In this team my main roles were game ideation and the mechanical design and fabrication plans for the sugar glider launching mechanism.
