Mickey Mouse with built-in speaker Shelf designed to hold a speaker, but time constraints didn’t give us enough time. Build a shelf organizer to help students find materials easier in locker Spinning Cinderella Elsa shooting ice Olaf spinning his head
Final Solution
We decided to build Olaf, but put an axle through the body so that the head, body, and bottom could spin 360 degrees.
Inventor Prototype (Assembly)
Main Feature- Spinning head, body, and bottom
Accessory- Rearrangeable parts
Evaluation
Some of the biggest problems we faced were working efficiently enough, given the time constraints. This also affects other parts of the project. -finding unique characters to use as a toy -fixing an axle through our character Another problem faced was communication. While we worked well together, the exact prototype of the toy was visualized differently.
