Our independent research for the semester looked at applying the principles of origami structures and
mechanisms design to creating a self deploying glider. This investigation is a continuation of a summer research project done by Olin students in the summer of 2017.
The goal is to create an autonomous ground vehicle (AGV) that will remove foreign object debris (FOD) from the Boeing 737 Final Assembly Facility and assist mechanics in cleaning - help mechanics focus on building the airplane instead of cleaning.
