Exciting News! Save the Egg: Egg Drop Protective Device Competition for Dynamics (ECS429) was a smashing success on June 16th, 2023, at Engineering Square!

The egg drop competition requires students to design and construct a protective device for an egg, which will be dropped from varying heights. Each student is given a time limit of two hours to create their model, using 12 items of their choice from a selection of 17 items provided during the event. The selection of items allows students to demonstrate their creativity and showcase their innovative designs with original ideas. In addition to creating the protective device, students are also required to drop their device from four different levels of height.

Students are required to utilize the principles of dynamics, which they have learned in class, to design a protective device for an egg. This device should effectively safeguard the egg from potential impacts or forces.

Talented students showcased their engineering prowess and creativity, leaving us in awe with their innovative protective device designs. Kudos to their hard work and dedication!

Congratulations to the winners of the competition, who not only won for the most innovative and unique design but also achieved the highest height drop survival! As a reward for their outstanding achievements, they will be sponsored a delightful free lunch at Campus Bean, UiTM.

The delighted lunch winners are:
Adila Syakhira bt Zuhairie
Lyana Dumang anak Denis
Umar Haziq bin Ahmad Mukhriz
Muhammad Lukmanul Hakim bin Halmi
Ainul Aqilah binti Che Nafiah

Congratulations to all the participants for their outstanding efforts! The winners for Best Poster, Most Innovative and Unique Design, and Highest Height Drop Survival will be announced at a later date during a small ceremony.
