I had to design a circuit to open a door upon detecting a person. I used an ultrasonic sensor and a servo to accomplish this task. Ultrasonic sensors send out high-frequency sounds and count how long it takes for the echo to return. The distance to the object can then...

For my first-year engineering class, I had to design and 3D print a mount for a 28BYJ-48 Stepper Motor to be used in the final project. I imported and scaled an image of the schematics into OnShape and used it to design the mount. The image of the motor I used is from...
