Dragon Automata

Technology and Realization

DBB111 - Creative mechanical design, engineering and manufacturing (Basic)

B1.1

Project Type

Mechanical Design, CAD

Description

The brief required designing, engineering, realizing, and demonstrating a kinetic-chain-reaction-machine using rapid prototyping techniques. Our team designed a dragon automaton that performs walking, tail swinging, head shaking, and wing flapping movements.

Looking Back

This project underscored the importance of continuous refinement through trial an error, contributing to part of my vision which is to creating feasible products. We overcame material and manufacturing challenges, enhancing my mechanical design and rapid prototyping skills, laying a solid foundation for future projects.
