My final project idea is hand with skelital structure and muscularture basically a life like robotic hand, it has been on my mind tough I do not want to make one with wires and pullies I want to make somesort of muscle that would move the arm and fingers pulling on them like a actual muscle would I've been thinking about hydrolics or pnumatics also muscle wire with a bladder that has muscle wire inserted into the bladder.
New Finaly project
I scrapped my first idea
I found the scale of what i wanted to do earlyer kind of too much so i decided to make somehting that would be fun and also i would be more able to use what ive learned in FabAcademy and utilise the weekkly assignments better.
So i decided to make a NERF turret wich would have IR sensors for detection and servos to move it to its target and fire it, My earlyer idea was to mount a nerf gun to a mount and use it as is with the turret part
but seeing the mechanics of it and how simple it was to make (more complex with all the programming i had to do) with just a pusher and two dc motors to spin the flyweels. I went on making a Fun desktop warfare tool.

Files used for making the NERF launcher and turret
Here is a list of what files and programs that were used to make it
- 1testflyweel.pdf Flyweel
- extralongConnector.pdfconnector for the motor brackets
- NERF launhcer assembly.svg
- NERF Turret parts Ring and sensors and command.svg
- hello.nerf.44.cProgramming for the NERF Comand board
- hello.nerf.44.c.make
- hello.nerflaunhcer.44c programming code for the nerf launcher
- hello.nerflaunhcer.44c.make
- NerfNode.brd the board for the nerf launcher itself
- NerfNode.sch
- PowerandCOMnew.brd Small baord for the power input to both the boards and to send and recive signals between the Node and the command board also instead of a finla 6 pin hedder i solderd on a power jack
- PowerandCOMnew.sch
- suports3.stl mold for the turret base is an .stl file becosue the Vcarve file is lost or ive missplaced it
- controlboard2.sch The Nerf Control board

What ive learned from this
What ive learned form this.. Well allot but ive learned that i need to keep organised and try to shedual myself better.
