The Fall 2012 project team from the ESC 497 Multidisciplinary Design Project course was honored with the Most Innovative Video award at the College of Engineering Design Showcase in late April.
The winning team developed an interactive display demonstrating the workings of a pneumatic tube for the Discovery Space children’s museum in State College. The display had two coils of transparent tubing and allowed the children to pick a path – either a dollar bill flowing to a collection box, or a colored ping-pong ball that is launched toward the ceiling requiring the kids to chase it around the room.
Team members were Austin Darigo, Melanie Macek, Daniel Severns, and John Sonnelitter, and the instructor was Mike Erdman. The video can be viewed on the Learning Factory website for future students and industry sponsors to see what our students can do.
