The scenario of the game is that a storm has struck a city and so there are many structure fires and flooding. Each team has two minutes to earn as many points as they can. A team earns points from using firefighters and firetrucks to put out the fires. They use the ambulances to move the uninjured people (green) to the Disaster Relief Zone and the injured (red) to the Medical Complex. A team also earns points from hooking up electrical lines and disconnecting the gas valves. Points are also earned from moving food, water and medical supplies to the Disaster Relief Zone and the Medical Complex. Given a robot to partake in this game, I would aim to move to the firetrucks to the burning buildings, firefighters to the sky bridges, moving the injured and medical supplies to the Medical Complex and to get the Mayor or Botguy, since these offer the most points.

LED Pop up Greeting Card 2018
A greeting card is used to show someone sentiment and gratitude. They are usually given in special occasions such as Christmas, birthdays, etc. In 1962, Nick Holonyak Jr. developed the first light-emitting diode that showed light in the visible of the frequency range. In 1972, M. George Craford mad the first yellow LED and a brighter red LED than Holonyak. In 1979, Shuji Nakamura made the first blue LED.

Lantern Project
The Moon Festival or the Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month of the Chinese Lunar Calendar. It is when the moon is at its brightest and roundest. It is one important traditional Chinese event, it is an occasion for family reunions.
Oct. 2nd - We went online decided on what design we wanted to use and we decided to do a cylinder shaped lantern, we then sketched out our lantern design.
Oct. 3rd - We started and finished the wire frame for our lantern. We first cut out 4, 12 inch wires and then we made two circles for the top and bottom. We tied the 4 wires on the two circles, and then we added a platform in the middle for the candle.
Oct. 5th - We got our wire frame and started to wrap and glue pink tissue paper around our frame. After we were done putting tissue paper around the frame we put in the candle on a platform we made in the middle and tied the string so we could hang up the lantern.

Dragster Project
This is the second project we've worked on so far. I decided to build a dragster car. The history behind these dragster cars started in England but then got popular in the United States in the late 50's early 60's. It was in the 1970's that dragster racing became more than a pass time. Ohio State University helped make a curriculum, in which one of the projects was to make a dragster car that was powered by CO2.
Day 1- We were told about how you had choice of what project you wanted to do. I decided to build the dragster car.
Day 2- Went on Whitebox and read the background information and did the quizzes.
Day 3- Started to the design my dragster car. Took a while to figure out how to design it but I eventually figured it out.
Day 4- I had my design and got it printed out and got the kit. I cut the dragster to the appropriate shape.
Day 5- Once I had the shape of the dragster, I put the axles and attached the wheels and added electrical tape for decoration.
Once I finished reading about the background information and taking the quizzes, I started to design my dragster car. At first I couldn't figure out how to change the shape of the car, but eventually got the hang of it and came up with my design. I then got my kit and got my design printed out. I started out by gluing the side profile of the car to the block of wood first. Then I started to shave it to shape with a knife. Once I had the shape roughly cut out, I sanded it so it was smooth. I also drilled the holes where the axles were going to go. Then I proceeded to work on the top profile of the dragster car. I cut down to shape and sanded it smooth. Once I had the body of dragster car, I put the axles through the holes I previously drilled and attached the wheels. I didn't want it to be that plain, I added some electrical tape to add some decoration.

For the first project of the second semester I decided to make a sticker with the vinyl cutter. Vinyl was first invented in the early 1920s by a rubber scientist who was trying to find an synthetic adhesive. Vinyl is a synthetic man-made material, it is made from ethylene and chlorine. A vinyl cutter is a computer-controlled machine. The vinyl cutter we are using is the CAMM-1 Pro Series GX-500 Vinyl Cutter by Roland. The vinyl cutter can cut up to 33 inches per second. It has the mechanical resolution of 0.0005”.
Day 1- We got to chose what project we wanted to do, I decided to do the vinyl cutter project.
Day 2- Worked doing background research on the history of vinyl and the vinyl cutter.
Day 3- Didn't have class
Day 4- Did more background research
Day 5- Took a quiz about the project
Day 6- Went on Adobe Illustrator and started to make my design.
Day 7- I finished making my design in Adobe Illustrator.
Day 8- I cut out my design using the vinyl cutter.
Day 9- I got the transfer tape and got the black parts of the design and placed it on top of the yellow circle and then I was done with the project.
Day 10- Didn't have class
Day 11- Worked on finishing my weebly page
Day 12- Didn't work on anything
Day 13- Didn't work on anything
I started out by doing background research on the history of vinyl and the vinyl cutter, then I was given a quiz about the project and the research we did. After that I got on to Adobe Illustrator and started to make my design. I decided to go with a logo of a soccer team. I made the logo in two different parts. I first made a circle for the yellow part of the logo and one for the black parts of the logo. I added 2 rectangles on the top to help me line up the two parts later on. Then I went to the vinyl cutter and cut out my design. After I was done cutting out the design, I got transfer tape and got the black parts of the design and lined it up on top of the yellow circle and then I was done with the project.

Vinyl Record ClockFor the second project of the second semester I had to make a vinyl record clock. The first laser cutter machine was manufactured by Western Electric Engineering Research Center in 1965. In 1967 the British pioneered the laser cutting of metals and during this time CO2 lasers were used to cut non-metals.
Day 1- I was told about the project, we were tasked with creating a clock using a vinyl record. Day 2- Looking for designs and ideas Day 3- Didn't have class Day 4- Still looking for a design for the clock Day 5- Decided to go with the Houston skyline for the design Day 6- Looked at videos of the process to build the clock. Bought my materials needed for the project. Day 7- The teacher showed us how to start making your design on Adobe Illustrator Day 8- Didn't have class Day 9- Starting working on making my design Day 10- Got the skyline on top of the design done. Day 11- Worked on the numbers and the Houston on the bottom of the design Day 12- Tried to figure out how to keep the circles in the middle of the 6, 9 and the O's in Houston from falling off. Day 13- Didn't have class Day 14- Fixed the circles and got the design done. |
SolidWorks
For the third project of the second semester we worked on a program called SolidWorks. SolidWorks was founded in 1993 by Jon Hirschtick. To set up the company he used $1 million he made while at the MIT Blackjack Team. He recruited a team of engineers with the explicit purpose of making 3D CAD technology more accessible. SolidWorks first released on November 1st, 1995. In 1997, Dassault Systèmes acquired SolidWorks for $310 million in stocks.
