Moving Gunpla & Figure

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Jihyun Ko

Home: Gyeonggi, Korea, Republic of

The basic plastic models once assembled can only stand in the set positions. I wanted to make the models into more than a statue. I figured that if I was able to transform the models into a moving statue I would enjoy them a lot more. The project remodeled a plastic model kit with a servo, LED, USB camera, controlled by Arduino Board and Raspberry Pi Board. Also, we used the Gundam Plastic model, Zaku Plastic model and others for the display of the project.

DIY Pinball with Maker tools (laser cutter, 3D printer, micro:bit)

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: K-12 Maker Lab at MIT Edgerton Center

Home: Massachusetts, United States

Originally conceived as a Maker skill-building activity for MIT students, this adaptable tabletop pinball game is blast to assemble, customize and play! Come try out our sample games, add your own features like bumpers, ramps, lights and sounds, or go head-to-head with a friend in 2-player mode. Take home plans to make your own pinball machine from common hardware. This is a great starter project for Makers in and out of the classroom: laser-cut the plywood playfield; use shop tools to cut lumber and assemble the base; 3D print your own set of flippers and buttons; design and fabricate any number of creative obstacles, features and decorations; express yourself through the theme for your machine; collaborate with others for 2-player mode.

MagiCal

Faire: Trieste

Maker: Beatrice Bove

Home: Italy, Italy

La calcolatrice MagiCal mantiene in costante relazione la rappresentazione quantitativa simbolica (cifre), non simbolica (pallini o dots) e motoria (movimenti di rotazione della calcolatrice e tap ovvero movimenti della mano simili a colpetti sulla calcolatrice). Ciò favorisce, a livello cognitivo, l’integrazione delle diverse rappresentazioni, facilitando il processo di conteggio e di calcolo aiutando il bambino a percepire la matematica come un gioco.

Muon Telescope and Detection of Muons in a Cloud Chamber

Faire: Wayne County

Maker: Elliott Liggett

Home: Ohio, United States

This project will demonstrate the muon telescope that I developed and was featured in MAKE MAGAZINE Vol 79. It contains 9 pairs of geiger tubes, equally spaced in a semi circle between 0 and 90 degrees to detect muons coming from different areas of the sky. I will also be demonstrating the use of scintillation crystals instead of geiger tubes to photograph muon tracks in a cloud chamber. The collision of interstellar particles, called primary cosmic rays, with other particles in the Earth's upper atmosphere creates muons and other subatomic particles, called secondary cosmic rays. A muon is one of several elemental particles that are indivisible, the basic building blocks of all mater and are continuously striking the earth. Muons are particularly interesting because they are heavy compared to other cosmic secondary cosmic rays, they travel at about 0.998 times the speed of light and they can penetrate hundreds of feet into the earth. the lifetime of a muon is only about 2.2 microseconds, which is actually not enough time to reach the surface of the Earth from the upper atmosphere. However, at 0.998 times the speed of light, the actual time experienced by a muon increases in accordance with Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity by a process called time dilation. Muons can come from every direction of tye sky, from straight above to horizontal.

The DynaMandala

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: DynaTeam

Home: Oregon, United States

The DynaMandala is a celebration of exploring the combination of Sight, Sound, AND Input. Input is a critical part of the work. When you play the DynaMandala, You complete the art.
