How the sizing mechanism works.

Team 1 -- Kyle Masters-Gutierrez and Ryan Lee wanted to work on a project that offered a challenge but would also be something they could complete within the time constraints. They decided to create a bracelet maker. The robot had to coordinate a wrist-measuring mechanism then spin the nylon bracelet to that size. One lesson they quickly learned was to make sure the measurement was taken at the hands widest point rather than at the wrist so they bracelet would fit over the hand.

The assignment sounded simple on paper -- make a robotic device that would assemble something you would expect to find in a toy store -- but proved to be much more challenging in reality. Not only did students need to come up with an idea but they had to create the code that would actually drive the robot's actions.
