Chris is getting crazy this time of year with his senior projects coming due this Monday the 28th and having to prepare for his presentations. He wanted me to come up to the school with him tonight while he is putting some finishing touches on the designs he has made so I thought I would update my blog with all of the brilliant things he has done. His first project, him and his group designed and built a vibrating couch that goes along with a surround sound system. Click on vibrating couch to view his web page for it. I just hope the guys don't fight over who gets the couch once they are done with it! :) His next project his team designed and built a Dynomometer which measures horsepower for Radio Control cars. Chris of course had no problem fronting the money for this project and ended up getting himself two monster truck RC cars out of the deal. Here is a link for this project as well. Click on RC dynomometer to view his web page for this one. It amazes me the stuff my husband has to know in order to come up with these things. He tries to show me programs he has written for the projects and they go way over my head. I guess that is why he is the engineer and I am not! I wouldn't cut it.
This is a picture of the control circuits for the couch that Chris drew on the white board before implementing it on the couch. Doesn't make much sense to me.
Here is a picture of the couch with all the electronics attached to it to actually make it vibrate along with the surround sound system.
Here is a picture of the Dynomometer they built with one of the two trucks Chris owns strapped to the machine.
