Hiding sensors

Finally we used five proximity sensors for each object. Can you find sensors in the seeting pictures? I saw many people who wanted to find sensors that trigger the movements of objects.
We tried to hide sensors people not to fine them easily.
But here, I open the secret!

This one is for a bag.


This one is for a book.


This one is for pencils.


This one is for a cup.


And we hided a sensor for a box in the book.

Setting on the hallway



The movement of a cup

Midterm | a cup

After we didn't make a tissue box, we were looking for other items and Chris found a cup. The mechanism of this cup was really simple, but the movement of a straw was awesome! He used a screw to fix a servo on the bottom of the cup because of this screw whenever the straw moved, the cup moved.



Midterm | a tissue box

I wanted to make a tissue box using a computer fan. So we tried to attach a fan the bottom of a tissue box, and make air to move tissues. When we tried the fan without a box, it had enough power to move the tissues, but when we put on the box on the fan, there wasn't enough airflow. With so much left to do we decided to pay more attention to other items.
