Mary is currently a senior in mechanical engineering. She is working on the mechanical design and production of the robotic arm. She produces CAD using SolidWorks (particularly the end effector) and machines various aluminum components. She will also be responsible for assembly, modifications, and testing of the final product.
Leslie is a third-year physics major at UC Berkeley. A tinkerer and designer at heart, she joined ME 102B with the intention of making a fantastic project with a group of awesome people. As the project coordinator of the group, she is responsible for organizing regular team meetings and managing the group’s agenda. She is also the creator of the project website, co-writer of project reports, end-effector CAD designer, and machinist for the project.
Payton is a fourth-year mechanical engineer at UC Berkeley. He is the chief CAD designer for the project and is responsible for the designs of the arm and gear box assemblies as well as the selector of ROCA’s motors. He is also the mechanical lead for the project and oversees the assignments and progress of machining.

Wilson is a fourth-year electrical engineering and computer science major at UC Berkeley. He is responsible for the image processing, hardware design and fabrication, and microprocessor coding. He works closely with Payton to determine the type of motors to use and the configuration of the motors with the entire mechanical structure.
Isaac is a fourth-year mechanical engineer at UC Berkeley. He is responsible for determining the specifications of ROCA via MATLAB simulations and created a numerical inverse kinematics solver to determine angles for the linkages to reach a certain point in space. He has contributed two servo motors to the end effector of the robotic arm and is a machinist for the project. For more detailed desription of Isaac's contributions, click here
Jeremy is a third-year international student at UC Berkeley from Tsing Hua University. He has done testing with web cameras and works closely with Wilson in image processing using Visual Studio. He is also a machinist for the project.
