Capsule

Capsule

Due to the disruptions caused by COVID-19, our team was scattered and unable to build some of the final features we wanted. This included a squeezable capsule to control a 'flame' (LEDs sandwiched between two sheets of translucent vinyl) blowing dragon snout. Regardless, I generated the CAD models and general plans that any team who wants to expand our work will want to start with.

The plan for the capsule included a post on each half to hold a spring in place, mounts for a limit switch, and a built-in wall which triggers the limit switch.
