The word "semiconductor" is a strong buzzword. They drive the stock market, enable all of our electronics and systems, and essentially hold up the world.

Creating a low-cost prosthetic arm is challenging, but making one that is also easy to calibrate and accurate is even tougher.

Developing prosthetic technology that is both affordable and functional is challenging in today’s space, mainly due to the costly fabrication and specialized calibration requirements. We aimed to create an affordable and easily implementable option through the form of off-the-shelf and common parts.

This blog will talk about the core concepts and the theory behind the circuit schematic and how it was approached.

In our previous blog, we talked about how we’re manufacturing a wiring harness, the essential electrical system in any automobile, for our FSAE car. This blog serves as a continuation and will cover our usage of connectors from DigiKey to make our lives easier and our car better!

Anteater Formula Racing is a student-run engineering project at UC Irvine. The objective is to design, manufacture, and test a Formula-style car in less than a year to compete yearly in the Formula Society of Automotive Engineers competition in Michigan (FSAE).
