The Sketch Model Challenge was a competition where each team was tasked with creating a vehicle of some sort, which a player could ride while a driver pushed/pulled and played a game of dodgeball against the other lab section in MMAE 432. Team Wolf Pack created the vehicle shown below, nicknamed "The Tank" because of its fully enclosed walls, making it almost impossible to get hit by a ball, and thus, making it almost impossible for our lab to lose the dodgeball game.
For this project we had to design a device that would be able to support all six of our team members. It would also have to pass several functional requirements that our group decided on.
Every single team member pitched in for this challenging yet fulfilling project. Most of the tank construction was done outside of class. Testing and minor adjustments were made at school.
After completely constructing the tank and making sure that it passed all of our functional requirements, we were ready to use it for the dodgeball tournament.
