In Inventioneering we were given the task of creating a replica of the infamous childhood-favorite board game— Operation. The objective of the game is to use tweezers to remove different objects from Cavity Sam, and the requirements for the project were:
When the project first started, my team and I were unsure what to do but once we got started it was easier. We evenly split up the tasks between the three of us and got started. Since I’m more artistically inclined than my other group members, I decided to take on the task of painting the board and 3D printing the objects that have to be removed from the board. I painted a penguin standing on a large iceberg to the very left of the board with another iceberg floating in the middle and another one towards the very right. There’s a whale jumping out of the water and gray mountains in the background. The board is looking good so far but I’m taking a lot longer on it than I anticipated because I’m a perfectionist and I’m taking a long time painting every detail because I need it to look perfect. I repainted the ocean twice because first it was the wrong shade of blue and then the second time the ocean was two different shades of blue so I repainted it. Also, for the penguin I didn’t like how light the shade of black it was painted was so I grabbed a sharpie and made it darker. I’ve been coming in during access to get it done and I think I can get it done within one more class period + access. As for the objects that the robot is going to be taking off the board, I’m almost done designing them and they should be ready to print soon.
