H2H Development Prototyping Update

Here is a video that showcases the work we have been doing the past few weeks down at the site. We expect to be finished with the wall and start the roof this week! Senior Design Day is only 23 days away!

H2H Prototyping Week 1

This is a video review of the H2H team's first week prototyping subsystem designs. The team was able to start the first of several Earth Bag mock ups to showcase all the critical design factors and logistics of building an Earth Bag home. In addition to this the Power team has built and started testing it's first Windbelt prototype, a technology that harnesses flutter energy to power low output devices(for our purpose, lighting).

In the next week we will continue building the mock ups and testing the Windbelt technologies using different parameters.
