Whale Automation

This project is a concept of what my partner and I found on Thingiverse. This automation project is a whale that moves up and down with a singular shaft. It has 6 cams, each for a different part of the whale, and 2 of the cams rotate the head back and forth to give it a more complex and aggressive look. The first 2 cams that rotate the head were not working very well, so we had to improvise. We cut some sandpaper and stuck it on the edges of the cams, it was not the best but it definitely worked much better. The overall dimensions of the whole project would come out to be 24 cm by 10 cm by 21 cm. This was a team project made in collaboration with Thanh Tran.
