My daughter enjoys inventing and creating. For a summer project, she designed and built a carrot cutting machine. Using littleBits and some household materials, I helped her construct a prototype based on her design. Lindsey's Original Design Mechanism Concept Sketch Materials dowel rods duct tape littleBits modules plastic knives cardboard box paperclip plastic carrots littleBits Schematic Modules 1 push button 1 servo motor (set to swing) 2 wire modules 1 power module 1 long LED Lever System Test Internal Components Test It Pushing the button on top of the box causes the LED to light up, showing that the machine is operating. Meanwhile, the servo pulls and pushes the lever system that causes the plastic knives to move up and down. The plastic carrots are sliced and diced!
