Hi everyone.

0:00:01.119,0:00:02.091
So, we're back!

0:00:02.353,0:00:04.703
My name is Eliot, and she is Jing Xuan.

0:00:04.763,0:00:07.583
We are back with our coilgun version 2

0:00:07.636,0:00:09.844
So, for those of you who missed our first talk,

0:00:10.743,0:00:14.152
a coilgun is an electromagnetic projectile launcher

0:00:14.152,0:00:18.122
that uses electromagnets to propel a projectile.

0:00:18.271,0:00:21.901
We start off by firing the first coil

0:00:21.911,0:00:25.171
which sucks the projectile into the middle

0:00:28.794,0:00:29.044
and activates the first sensor which activates the second coil,

0:00:31.625,0:00:32.906
and the second sensor which activates the third coil

0:00:32.906,0:00:33.976
which then fires the projectile.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
A quick recap of our version 1 -

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
we made a 60 Volt 3 Stage coilgun

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that was modular and could fire with

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
either one, two, or three stages,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
or one stage with all the power of three stages

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
into that one stage.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But the disadvantage of having it modular

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is that you need to do a lot of daisy chaining

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
because you need to pass the power

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
from one end to the other.
