How can you decorate and transform your creation to look and feel like Halloween?

Think Like a Engineer:

How many ways can someone interact with your creation? Is it sound, touch, light, etc. activated?

CHALLENGE YOURSELF

How professional or “clean” can you make the design look? Can you hide all robot mechanisms?

  • Take advantage of different spaces (makerspace, workshop, labs, etc) and different kinds of materials (found materials, purchased materials, craft materials, etc) and any other resources you can find!

  • Be conscious of the final environment. A Haunted House will likely be dark, loud, and with many people interacting over a relatively short period of time.

  • Visitors might be of many different ages: how can you make your project accessible to everyone? What interface and style of interaction will you pick?
