Engineering Case Study Archive

2026 // Robotics Systems

Mechanical leadership across the 2026 University Rover Challenge platform, spanning chassis packaging, wheel development, manipulator work, electronics integration, science payload support, and field testing.

2024 // High-Speed Mechatronics

Crescendo robot with swerve drive, variable-angle shooter, rapid intake, and endgame mechanisms packaged for autonomous scoring reliability.

2023 // Manipulator Architecture

Charged Up robot with rack-and-pinion arm geometry, piston-assisted extension, and robust multi-game-piece handling for repeated match loads.

2026 // Mechanical Systems

A task-focused 4-DOF plus linear-axis rover manipulator built to replace a heavier 6-DOF arm. The redesign reduced reach, simplified actuation and packaging, and freed weight budget while still covering the competition task space.

2026 // Rover Communications

Temporary case-study scaffold for a rover-team antenna rotator built to maintain stronger long-range communication alignment during field operation.

2026 // Combat Robotics

Temporary case-study scaffold for a work-in-progress battlebot project. Use this page to capture the design brief, weapon or drivetrain architecture, and testing outcomes as the build develops.

2026 // Imaging Hardware

Temporary case-study scaffold for an automatic camera film scanner focused on transport, illumination, alignment, and repeatable frame capture.

2026 // Product Engineering

Gallery-forward archive of manufactured keyboard programs spanning layout exploration, production CAD, supplier coordination, and launch-ready product engineering.

2026 // Fabrication / Props

Temporary case-study scaffold for cosplay prop builds, including concept translation, fabrication, finishing, and practical wear or handling considerations.

2026 // Studio Tools

Collection page for small 3D-printed photography and cinema grip tools made to solve quick workflow problems around the studio.

2026 // Materials Experimentation

Temporary case-study scaffold for carbon fiber forging experiments focused on tooling, process variables, part quality, and practical fabrication lessons.
