"Rail Snail" Hackathon Project

MakeMIT (MIT’s biggest hackathon) 2022 was held at MIT campus and I participated with several friends of mine. Our project was called the Rail Snail and aimed to help people in wheelchairs since the theme of that competition was aimed at mobility. Our project used a few motors, a battery, and an Arduino nano to pull wheelchair users up ramps. We realized going up ramps on campus is a very annoying process and takes a lot of work, so we wanted to help with that process by making a device to do the work for you. Rail Snail Project on Devpost
