Welcome to AutomatAR
Explore mechanical engineering concepts through augmented reality. Point your camera at kit markers to see interactive 3D demonstrations of gears, cams, cranks, and other mechanical systems.
Cam-A: Rotational motion
Demonstrates how cams convert rotational motion into linear oscillatory motion using contoured surfaces to drive followers in precise, complex patterns.
Cam-C: Intermittent motion
Shows how a Geneva wheel mechanism creates precise, timed intermittent motion from continuous rotational input using pins and slots.
Crank: Reciprocating motion
Illustrates how a rotating crank arm converts rotational motion into linear back-and-forth movement through connecting rods.
Gear-A: Perpendicular transmission
Demonstrates how bevel gears with cone-shaped teeth transfer rotational motion between perpendicular shafts at 90-degree angles.
Gear-B: Variable speed & torque
Shows how gear alignment and shape create variable speed and torque output from constant input through dynamic load distribution.
Gear-C: Worm gear system
Gear-C is a worm gear system that converts rotational motion while significantly reducing speed and increasing torque.
