Designed a unique four­ bar linkage mechanism that sorted different colored balls into baskets. It incorporate both mechanical and electrical components, and was designed using Solidworks and controlled through an Arduino. The linkage components were manufactured by another team “in-house”. In addition, to better understand industry practices, we manufactured a mechanism designed by another team. In doing so, we will be required to make detailed engineering drawings and manufacturing plans for own mechanism that can be easily interpreted by an outsider.
