Continuing from the beginning of the week, I proceeded in my research of the Lexus Hoverboard. As I said earlier, this porotype has not hit the market due to the complex tech and the specialized track it needs to function. This makes me wonder about my idea and if it is really possible. The technologyContinue reading “October 8, 2020”

Today was a fun class period! The class took part in preparation for a DaVinci video that will be presented to the board. This video is meant to show what exactly DaVinci is, its purpose, and the experience it gives for the students. We worked together to create a video of everyone saying their projectContinue reading “October 7, 2020”

Today was interesting day as I looked into the Lexus Hoverboard which my classmate Ryan suggested for me to do. It is so helpful having the aid of the people in this class to help me bring the picture in my head to life even though I myself don’t quite have it painted out completely.Continue reading “October 6, 2020”

Today I took a step back and looked over my project and the progress that I have made. A goal of mine would be to put together all of my research into a presentation so I can have it in one place. I have hit a slump, yet today was a productive day as IContinue reading “October 5,2020”

Our projects are required to follow a set of criteria. Today I looked through the lists of standards and tried to apply them to which work best with my idea. Each project must include 3 math, 3 science, and 3 technology categories. To say the least, a main goal would be to have this criteriaContinue reading “October 2, 2020”

Happy October 1st, time really does fly! Today I took the time to continue some research and look back at my biweekly feedback and accomplish those goals. Linked below are two articles that Mrs. VanEtten provided for me as a resource. The first one is an article about a reimagined shopping cart! It is soContinue reading “October 1, 2020”

Today I was told about Consolidated Scrap Resources located in Harrisburg. One of their machines is an electric magnet that is able to turn on and off to collect and move materials. Since I am having difficulty finding a contact, I hope to reach out to this company to find out more about their machinery,Continue reading “September 30, 2020”

Continuing yesterday’s research, I looked at the differences between Magnetic Vs Electric fields. Magnetic fields exerts its force on moving electrical charges (protons and neutrons) while electric fields exert the force around particles which are either negative or positive without the need of movement. The image below provides a better explanation between the two fields.Continue reading “September 29, 2020”

After discovering electromagnets, I decided to do more research in that direction as it seems to be a better solution for my project. The electromagnetic field involves the push and pull of anything with an electric charge. That field is the area where the charged particles (positive protons and negative electrons which move in oppositeContinue reading “September 28, 2020”

Today I continued research into magnets and focused on reading articles and gathering information. Linked below is a website that provided the most detail for my concept. For each fact, I was able to picture my concept and how it would apply as it included information of what a magnetic field is, the strength ofContinue reading “September 25, 2020”
