Rob Ruddle presenting his final overall project at Arts & Bots 2011.
This is C3PO and he is looking for storm troopers. When he finds them he throws the thermal detonator at them.

Students will create a model of a biological system that demonstrates how that biological system works. More specifically, the model should demonstrate how the system reacts when performing a certain task. Student research will be necessary. The inspiration for this project came from the demonstration we saw yesterday in which sensors were attached to a man to create a graphical model how h is body reacts when hitting a golf ball. this activity could also be extended by having students label systems, subsystems, and components. While sensors would be very expensive for a school district, there are plenty of youtube videos that demonstrate things in slow motion. additionally, some might have access to high speed cameras and will be able to create their own slow motion videos. The difficulty I see with this project is that this will only work for systems you can see from the outside of the body.
