This term we have been experimenting with the LITTLE BITS S.T.E.A.M KIT. We had also experimented with Dash for our coding.

Magnetic power
Magnetic power could be harnessed to move trains,cars and people. In Tokyo they have started to build a magnetic bullet train where their are magnets on the bottom of the train and on the rails. When the magnets tilt the opposite magnetic forces push against each other and the train will be propelled along the track therefore taking people from one place to another.
THE Solar and water powered AQUADUCK
My alternate powered vehicle is the solar and water powered Aquaduck. I first designed it on Assembly. For it to work you need to connect the solar panels and water turbines to the battery in the front of the vehicle.
This is my S.W.O.T. analysis table
This is my action plan for how to prototype and construct my alternate powered vehicle.
