Thirty-five students spanning several areas of engineering formed seven teams and built projects that ranged from a remote controlled arm to a video game.<\/p>\n<p>The event was organized by Don Heer, instructor in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, who wanted to provide students an event similar to a start-up weekend or app hackathon, but for hardware. It was the fourth event for Heer who values real-world experiences that augment the student\u2019s classroom experiences.<\/p>\n<p>To build their projects the students had a variety of components available to them including tiny computers, NVIDIA Jetsons, motion sensors and motors, and as access to 3D printers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s surprising how much this relates to my classwork, but also how much fun I had with it,\u201d said Mark Andrews, student of electrical and computer engineering and math. It was the second HWeekend for Andrews.<\/p>\n<p>About half of the students at the spring HWeekend had participated in one of the previous three HWeekend events that were sponsored by Eaton, Rockwell Collins and Micron.<\/p>\n<p>Two projects: The Hand of Glory by Mark Andrews, Paul Lantow, and Conner Yates; and Go Go Gadget Claw by Tyler Gilbert, Ryan Green, Rattanai Sawaspanich, and Keaton Scheible are featured in videos below. The Go Go Gadget team won the Most Innovative award and tied for the Most Helpful award with the Mechanical Calf Assisting Device team.<\/p>\n<p>-by Rachel Robertson<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Go Go Gadget Claw - HWeekend Spring 2015\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HoGJlhbkBEA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/youtu.be\/SgaxmNlVm48<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In just 30 hours, Oregon State University students created wearable technology projects at HWeekend on April 10-12, sponsored by the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
