The Challenge | The Memory-Maker

Traditional electronics do not work well on Venus, and memory is one of the biggest challenges. Your challenge is to develop mechanical approaches to accomplishing tasks normally done electronically within the context of space exploration.

MEMORY CREATOR: THE MECHANICAL COMPUTER

The mechanical computer is a simple analog system built with gears, levers and pistons. This mechanical system captures the dynamic interactions of the environment in which it is inserted to generate binary outputs 0 and 1 through photon emissions.

Ram Makers II

Exploring planets that have hostile environments is one of the biggest challenges in the space context. Traditional electronics will not help scientists gather information about these hostile planets. To solve this problem and help scientists collect data from these planets. We have developed a mechanical computer to operate in chaotic environments of high pressure and temperature that uses an analogical method to collect and transmit information about the internal environment of hostile planets such as Venus.
