As part of the Rhode Island School of Design's RISD ROVER club I helped design and build a human-powered vehicle for the NASA Human Exploration Rover Challenge.
The materials used are Carbon Fiber, Chromemoly Steel, 3D Printing, CAD, and Urethane Rubber.
Our Goals were to create a light weight vehicle that can be placed in a 5X5 cube and that can complete the course in under 7 minutes.
