Polymer and Fiber Engineering Composite Hard Hat Test
This was part of a 2014 senior design project, partnering with V2 Composties, that tested the structural integrity of hard hats made from fiberglass, aluminum, and carbon fiber. Watch the video to see the results!
Auburn ornithopter
The Auburn ornithopter, a kit-built mechanical bird that mimics winged flight to propel itself, is flown by radio control through a joystick pad. Students working on this project hope to develop an automated bird that will fly by itself.
