HyperSystem
October 2013 - May 2018
Engineering Capstone and Technical Writing project
Presenting the HyperSystem involved three five minute presentations as well as two eight minute presentations followed by questions and answers varying from ten to thirty minutes. I also presented this idea in a six minute Technical Writing presentation. All presentations were orally given independent of notes and speaking aids.
The HyperSystem is an evolution of the Limboid designed to fulfill the requirements of an engineering capstone course. It is a modular system that can be configured into a variety of flexible machines such as a robot or a CNC. Rather than being any specific machine, the HyperSystem is a system of components that can be used to flexibly build whatever the imagination and laws of nature permit. Some possibilities are detailed below.

HyperSystem Project Proposal. This proposal granted me approval to use time at school to research and design the HyperSystem. It defines, discusses, and demonstrates uses of the HyperSystem.
A Pragmatic Approach to Sustained Flexible Manufacturing. This paper discusses a specific disruptive impact where the HyperSystem is most appreciated in the manufacturing environment.
A HyperSystem of Things. This paper discusses flexible systems and how the HyperSystem approaches a "perfectly flexible system".

Cookie CutterMay 2015
Product Video - Playlist - "Why Buy Cookie Cutter" Slides - "Why Buy Cookie Cutter" Outline - Marketing Slides
The Cookie Cutter is an experimental Plasma Cutter. Its plasma cutting feature never was made operable though aluminum foil strength plasma cutting was achieved in research. The Cookie Cutter can successfully coordinate a tool head using Cookie Cutter CookieControl. (See CookieControl under programming and Cookie Cutter under engineering.) I presented this to my human geography class as a potential revolutionary technology to the manufacturing world.
