Projects Worked on This Semester: Toggle-Joint Cam Movement: (worked on with William) The primary function of this mechanism is to extend a circular array of rectangular blocks linearly through a rotational trigger movement by a central disk. This was done by linking the protruding blocks to the central knob at an angle such that rotating the knob would al… text/html 2012-02-09T11:48:55-04:00 http://dap.cooper.edu/doku.php?id=labinfo:people:students2011:team_symbl:failed_idea&rev=1328806135&do=diff Idea 1: New York City subway ride gone wrong.
