The basketball in our product is larger than the small toy. Also, the basketball arcade game served as inspiration for our own original work. It's an inventive version that effectively utilizes technology and recyclable materials. It is considerably more environmentally friendly than a basketball toy. Instead of using plastics and other non-biodegradable materials, we used discarded papers and other recycled materials to make a game that is fun for all of us as well as good for the environment by achieving a balanced ecosystem.
Materials
The materials needed to make it are the following, glue gun, cutter, scissors, colored papers output shaft, servo horn, jumper wires (male to female), paintings, illustration board, and among the other necessary things from the Arduino kit.
Inspiration
What inspired us to make this robotics applications are our childhood game called mini basketball toy and one of our favorite leisure activity as teenagers which is the arcade basketball game.
Reflection
I came to the realization that preparation is always the key to success. To execute things correctly, it is always vital to outline the ultimate outcome. Also, it's crucial to double-check everything before turning in our project to prevent issues with the demonstration phase that can jeopardize our marks. Also, we wanted to make an impression and motivate the elementary school pupils to go higher and refrain from settling for less.
About the Makers
I find technology very fascinating and interesting. I love how through advanced technologies, our lives became more efficient and comfortable.
Sophia is really into perfecting her task. Putting forth every effort on projects like this for her is crucial because not only she wants to impress but also because she is the type of person who wants to show her knowledge with the utmost skill.
Amelia is a great critical thinker. She likes to go through every possibility that could happen when an act occurred. Getting things together done on time is one of her traits which I adore the most.
As of now, I really am trying to focus on self-development not only in the field of technology but also to other significant learnings that I could use as an advantage to go through life challenges.
