Ideas for a school-project

[WAUZZZI]

Hey forums,

 

 

I have to make a project for school and I have absolutely no idea what I could build, other people are building things like bridges, wind wheels, solar-stuff but that's just too boring and ordinary imho, I want to make something special.

 

Things I have here:

Lots of Legos, a couple of motors, lots of cables, batteries and stuff, Soldering-Iron, basic knowledge of electronics (calculate how strong a resistor must be and stuff, drawing blueprints etc.) and I also have a working motherboard of a Galaxy Nexus including all sensors (Ambient-Lighting, 2 cameras, 2 microphones, accelerometer, gyroscope) Bluetooth, GPS, you could do lots of things with that but I have no idea what exactly I could do so I ask you, maybe you had to make such projects too and could tell me what you did, that would be awesome!

Thanks for your time and help in advance!

You could look to Ben Heck for inspiration, he builds a lot of cool stuff.

Try making a mobile phone charger ON a bicycle via the dynamo, so you charge your phone if you cycle!

Hey,

 

sry for my late response, I've been busy

 

Thanks for the comment with Ben Heck, he really has a lot of awesome stuff, maybe I'll find something there, thanks!

Lego-Case would be awesome too, I have old PC-Parts laying around, maybe I can build something with it, I'll ask my teacher if that would be okay.

That would be really awesome but I don't have the NXT-Cube unfortunately (another thing that's on my endless list of "Have to buy"...) but I think we have those at our school, maybe I could do something with them, the program for controlling this thing is fairly straightforward, I remember that we took part in tournaments that our school hosted, if I could use the NXT that would be awesome

Make 3d or (real one) model of that big data center that belongs to NSA and make it explode, set on fire, crush by a Godzilla, flooded, turn into pieces by tornado, get attacked by zombies and much more. Youll get top grade...
