Paper Circuits Project
Our first project was to create beginner level paper circuits. We created our circuits using basic cell batteries, LEDs, soldering irons, copper tape and construction paper. After completing the paper circuits we calculated the battery life for each of the circuits.
Circuit Draw: 10 mAh for every circuit
Battery Life: 240 mAh/10mA = 24 hours for every circuit

Introductory Project
The class was broken into groups of 4-5 people. Each group was tasked with creating an interactive game or book of some sort.
My group created an interactive book that told the story of a little fish on his journey through the ocean. In our book we primarily used LEDs and an Arduino buzzer. My group and I made our book interactive by using pull tabs, light sensors and buttons.
We also used our skills we learned earlier in class to 3D print our fish we used in the book. The coral you can see in the pictures was also laser cut in the prototyping lab.
Design Project
The class was broken into groups of 4 people each. The goal of this project was to create a solution to a problem. My group created a system that promoted both learning and exercise. We created a game that used 11 laser cut boxes with shapes. Our project had two game modes, Rainbow Run and Trivia Dash.
