Computer Science 15-110, Fall 2009
Class Notes:  Samir's Sliding-Rod Mechanical Logic Gates

Looking for a fascinating term project that turns a pile of wood blocks into a real, functioning computer?

Check out this spectacular project by a student who attended Andrew's Leap last summer.

Here is the video (it's 11mb, so be patient...):  Samir's mp4

Interested?  Inspired, even?  Think you can improve on Samir's design?  For example, how about adding mechanical motors to automate the rod pushing?  Go for it!!!
