We interacted with middle and high school students participating in a science fair in Spring 2024, exposing them to the wonders of breadboarding and Arduinos!
At over 6' tall, our trebuchet launched us into 2nd Place at the Annual ASME Pumpkin Launch in Fall 2019! We also received the Best Spirit award in Fall 2022.
The Rochester Maker Faire is a convention for makers all across Rochester to come together and show off what they do.
UR Makers has taken part for several years. In Fall 2022 and 2023, we taught people how to use Arduinos and breadboards to make their own circuits. For 2020, we made an infinity mirror using an old LCD screen. In collaboration with Odyssey Batteries, we created a remote controlled chair for 2018.
Led by a previous president Tram, team Death by Design, started by another previous president, Seth, competed from 2017-2021. We built robots that fought with each other like the TV show Battlebots, albeit on a smaller scale of 150g to 30 lbs.
Current:
Programming Lego Robots to do a Rubik's Cube, creating a table top arcade cabinet
Past:
Arduino drink dispenser: Using an Arduino, we made our own soda dispenser/drink mixer, guaranteed to make you the perfect mixed drink every time.
