Witness the most unique final exam you’ll ever see – the Clark School’s Hovercraft Competition (otherwise known as the final exam of ENES 100, “Introduction to Engineering Design,” the Clark School's signature course that all engineering students must take in their freshman year). Undergraduate student teams will launch their hand-built, autonomous hovercraft to navigate around a track. The two-foot hovercraft are constructed of foam, batteries, an Arduino UNO microcontroller, fans, sensors and other components. Each vehicle must float on a cushion of air and propel forward to complete the course.
This Event is For: Public • Clark School • All Students • Alumni • Corporate • Press • Parents and Family
