Just a bunch of Nigerian Unilag students, walking up to some of the biggest companies in the country, into unfamiliar territory and demanding to be heard. Tell me, what is audacity again?

Science or art? You can't take one from the other. They are both ways of questioning and understanding the world. Science creates beautiful things constrained by reality while art creates beautiful things constrained by the media of the art. — Samuel Arbesman

Introducing Tnkr. The GitHub for Robots. Simple scales. And robotics hasn't been simple, until now. Our mission is to make building and collaborating on robots as simple and intuitive as humanly possible. When that happens, the developer pool explodes, the pace of innovation accelerates, and the future arrives faster.

There's an 'M' in the left Wing and an 'R' in the right wing. It's not a coincidence. It stands for MakerRayo. (Yes, I'm not a terrific designer, I know 🙂‍↔️)
Ladies and gentlemen, the reveal... 😅🫴

Final update on the Mini project: Butterfly Brooch Version 1 👇 It works... Kinda. I like the design of the wings but it's quite unstable and there's a lot of improvements to be made.
I have a motor, but I need two wings to flap. What do I do? Design a mechanism to work with what I have of course! I'm sure there are other (better) ways to achieve this, but I'm pretty proud of how it turned out. Had to design the mechanism twice until it worked.

I will redesign it in fusion, then 3d print the necessary part. I also have to make arrangements for the battery casing. Pretty cool experience, would have been cooler to finish on time and wear it to speak at Devfest though 🥹

Improvements to be made 👇 - Stabilising the translational joint - Using a smaller motor. - Getting new hinges (This one assumes one stationary side) - Making it more compact

The plan was to make a cute little brooch to complement my dressing and also just to show off. It turned out bigger than I planned and the mechanism needs a face lift for smoother movement.
