PROJECT 3 - THERE'S A RECYCLABLE AMONG US

- Design a System for Sorting and Recycling Containers -

In Project Three, students will work in teams to design a system for sorting and recycling containers of varying materials. This project will introduce you to principles of smart devices and assembly modelling as you design a computer program for controlling robotic devices and fabricate a mechanism for depositing the containers into a recycling bin. It is expected that your design will successfully classify containers using data from the physical environment, analyze the container for contamination, and transfer the container to the correct bin for recycling. At completion of the project, you will integrate the digital and physical elements of your design to showcase your results and demonstrate functionality of the entire system during a Design Expo.
