Boise State Microgravity

The motors that drive WALL-E's motion are housed inside an acryllic shell. Signals are sent from these motors to a "black box" that houses a small computer called a Raspberry Pi. Our team has developed a program on this computer that controls the motors and provides a user interface (UI). Through the UI, the operator can precisely manipulate the positions of each finger while also viewing a live feed from a camera on WALL-E's palm so they can see its movement in real time.

11 days until Houston!
