Rube Goldberg Machine
ME270 Class Project - Chain Reaction Machine
For our ME270 class project, we designed and built a chain reaction machine that demonstrates various mechanical principles while achieving a simple goal: lighting up a bulb through an entertaining sequence of events.
Our completed Rube Goldberg machine incorporating multiple mechanical mechanisms.
