A Kinetic Break Timer!

A screen-free timer designed to remind students to take movement breaks without an audible alarm. In interviews, students described working for hours at a time and disliking alarms in shared rooms. I explored how an Arduino-controlled motor could bend a segmented stem as time passes and at 30 minutes, signal that it’s time to take a break with the use of an LED.

This was a smaller scale project, so just feel free to scroll through my documented thinking for it below!
