High School Project - Mini Airhockey Table with Robotic Arm

Click For Summary
A high school engineering project featuring a Mini Airhockey table with a Robotic Defender has been shared, showcasing a well-executed design. The project includes a detailed guide on Instructables, highlighting the complexity of implementing servo error feedback to convert vector red-shift into target positioning. The project demonstrates significant technical skill and effort in both the design and execution phases.

Thanks for allowing the post.
 
Great efforts on the sketch-it build. The servo error feedback must have been a significant challenge just to convert vector red-shift to target position.
 
Some time ago I posted this Raspberry PI DIY Mass Spec using Raman Scattering. It's was something of a cumbersome project though, needing a 3D printer and special heat-resistant plastic giving of carcinogenic fumes during printing. To be blunt it was also not very mobile and interpreting the results was further cumbersome Recently though, I've been told that Arduino, and it's various sensor packages, has matured to the point where it's a usable alternative. Now I realize that a cigarette...
