Engineering Library Escape Room! We Need Your Help!

Posted on February 12, 2019February 12, 2019 by Carol Johnk

Looking for inventors, puzzle-lovers, adventure-seekers, escape room aficionados!

We plan to build a couple of College of Engineering escape rooms this semester and we would like to get YOU (engineering students, faculty, staff members) involved! We plan to have the rooms ready by Saturday, March 30^th.

We have two types of tasks for engineering students (faculty, staff) members to help create the Engineering Escape Room using their ingenuity and cleverness: 1) to design a puzzle and 2) to put the escape room together.

Puzzle Submission Form Build Team Sign-up Form

Seeking individuals or groups to submit ideas of puzzles, cipher codes, hidden messages, or other games and puzzles to put into the rooms. If your puzzle is selected, it will be put together with 5-10 other puzzles to create the full escape room.

Parameters:

Clues must be solvable in under 10 minutes by the average student. (The whole room should take about 45 minutes to solve.)
Cost to build the puzzle components must be under $10 for each puzzle. (We want 5-10 puzzles with varying difficulty to be in each room.)
- We already have some tools you can use like a black-light with black-light pen, red lens viewer to find hidden messages in books or art, a variety of locks with both letter and numeric codes on them.
- You can also use any tools and resources already in the library, as long as it can be turned back to their original state after the event.
- The puzzle must be reusable. This means it can be reset-up so the next group coming in can still play the game.
- Nothing can be placed behind the outlets or near the lights.
You can submit more than one puzzle. Submit as many as you like!
Submit puzzles that fit with one of the listed themes. The Escape Room organizers will decide which theme will ultimately end up in the space depending on how many puzzles are submitted. If we’re lucky, we may have more than one Escape Room!
- Theme Ideas:
  - You are locked in a game that uses a variety of board games.
  - A gremlin has stolen a key to unlock the door to escape so you will need to find the gremlin to get out.
  - You are locked in a movie theater.
Design your puzzle and submit it using the following form by 8 a.m. Wednesday, February 13th!
- Puzzle Submission Form
There are lots of escape room ideas online. Here are a few places to get you started thinking like an escape room puzzle-creator.

1. Seeking individuals or groups who want to put the rooms together: compiling designs, creating a plan, building.
- This group will actually pull together the designs and create an the escape room(s).
- We will have teams of 2-4 individuals to make a room. If there are specific people you’d like to have on your team, indicate that on the form (below).
- We can make up to 3 rooms in the library depending on how many ideas we received and how many volunteers we have.
- Each volunteer will work on just one of the rooms so you can still do the puzzles and games in the other rooms.
- Build Team Sign-up

Posted on January 18, 2019January 18, 2019 by Carol Johnk

CONGRATULATIONS KICK-START WINNERS!!!

We are pleased to announce the winners of this year’s Creative Kick-Start Program!

Kick-Start, a program which was developed by the Engineering Library and the Engineering Technology Centers, awards $500 to 10 projects which are submitted by engineering students. Undergrad and graduate students are eligible to submit proposals for prototyping a new project or finishing a current project. The funds for the Creative Kick-Start program have generously been provided by the Engineering Technology Centers.

Twenty-seven students are involved in the 10 winning entries. Each project has to have a sponsor and this year there are 10 faculty/staff who are sponsoring projects.

Meet the winners!

Olivia Laux, Kaylin Slinskey, Lucinda Williamson, Jared McClung and Bryan Williams are working on an Air Chair. Their goal is to design a product which will reduce damage to wheelchairs during commercial air travel. The Asonus Tech (Alerting Device) is being developed by Adam Hoffman and Philip Abangan. Their small, wearable device will alert the user – via vibration – of important noises in the surrounding environment. Sounds would include doorbells, fire alarms, etc. Body Betty, an interactive toy designed to educate children about anatomy using a doll and a fun app, is the goal of Caroline Chelsvig and Emily Leibold.

The Car Turbo Jet Engine will be designed by Greg Beaver and Walker Jarvie – and will take a turbocharger from a car and turn it into a jet engine. A wearable self-defense device called the Kineta uses voltage to shock the perpetrator. It is being developed by Ashley Mathews.

Theodore Simmons and Miguel Camarena want to design A Lyapunov-Based Control System for Path-Following WIPs. Their design will be a novel control algorithm and electromechanical system for path-following wheeled inverted pendulum (WIP) robots.

James Cory, Jayme Waite, Dakota Striet, Cecily Calcopietro, and Isaak Moore will create the Optoshoulder – equipment and methods for proper, prone bilateral execution of prone Y’s, prone I’s, and prone T’s exercise for shoulder injury patients. The Patient Table is being designed by Elizabeth LeMar to create a table that can be placed on a hospital bed, allowing patients to have access to a table that moves with their bodies, making activities much easier.

Emma Tokuyama and Daniel Kelly will be working to create a Rocket Bike – a regular bicycle converted into an electric bicycle. The end result will be a fast, cheap, and environmentally friendly way for students to get around. The Root Canal Pal will be a device designed to stimulate large nerve fibers in the facial area. It will mask the brain’s perception of pain and work in tandem with existing local anesthetic administration. Ethan Slater, Colin Zwifel, Annie Cahill, Shao Yan Zhang, and Nina VanDerZanden will be working on this project.

Congratulations to these winners! We’re looking forward to watching these projects develop!
