It is nice to see something other than a basic machining project for a final university course. This team spent 5 weeks putting together a cool final project that would create and serve an ice cream to some hungry onlookers!
"The Department of Technological Studies at Ohio Northern University developed these ice cream serving robots as part of an extracurricular activity for ONU’s homecoming festivities. The project took 5 weeks and included 26 students."
