ME218a: Mechatronics

ME218a is the first quarter of a year-long graduate-level Mechatronics class at Stanford University. In 2010, students were asked to design an interactive electromechanical system to enact some kind of political change. We chose to emulate the political campaign trail with an arcade-style game.

Our team collaborated on each part of the project, but I focused on the software (low level up to the event-driven state machine), designing some of the electrical circuits, and the pulley-based bank account display.
