0:00:00now let's go to princeton university where the trap door experiment and other relating to
0:00:05perception and experience were done to sing if this is in the engineering departments and
0:00:10of you will be different from those which are entities
0:00:13and humanities a senior theses and the being in research projects the control up to
0:00:19you know hundred pages
0:00:20basically people generate a small book
0:00:27but it is it a can vary but using boston sort of project for mechanical
0:00:32engineers either you do professes research or you pick your own project and you know
0:00:38but something that you wanna below
0:00:52everyone knows the famous training sequence from rocking which she has as discussed in looking
0:00:57head shaking a more and then goes out ones at this that actually was filled
0:01:01with study can see you can imagine that running up the steps with a big
0:01:06thirty five millimetre camera it's required to keep the camera study
0:01:12running up steps definitely sorta generates a lot of jolting you can imagine if you
0:01:16have big thirty five millimetre camera that's pretty harder to we'll that steps
0:01:21when the movies that inspired me to make a camera civilisations them was a father
0:01:26grown stronger that the camera somehow rotates around the inside of a really small car
0:01:33meanwhile there's all this you know commotion on outside the car goes in reverse and
0:01:38like you know camera spending between for different people and all the while it's completely
0:01:44still and like they it turns out they had to build a lot a contraption
0:01:47to going to achieve this really cool factor is really affect
0:01:51some of the drawbacks those systems and that there are mainly extremely heavy
0:01:55used for large-scale speech signals
0:01:59and that's we wanted to make something that was very lightweight
0:02:02that one of the key design goals are looking for
0:02:06as a stabilisation platform our device utilises in kilometre to keep the platform stadium level
0:02:13we can use a water bottle to demonstrate that principle
0:02:16one putting on the top platform and tilting the base you can see that the
0:02:19top five for maintains a steady level position "'cause" in the bottle to stay on
0:02:23top
0:02:24there's no text but there are no office hours there is no class there are
0:02:28no problem says to goddess through this are thesis was
0:02:31it was just us if we can figure something out we had to user devices
0:02:35and resources
0:02:37figure out what the problem was diagnosed situation pressed together crunch the numbers and try
0:02:42to come up with the solution
0:02:43there were definitely kernels along the way but as we came over each one of
0:02:46them we really felt like we got over them using our two minds which was
0:02:51alternately a really great feeling
