Four MSU students took first place Sunday at the International Design Competition of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Mechanical engineering seniors Emily Duszynski and Jonathan Luckhardt, operational engineering graduate student Kyle Koepf and MSU alumnus Joshua Thomet won the competition with a robot that washes windows.
The team’s robot was designed and built entirely by the students.
It attaches itself to a window with a suction fan and then moves across the window with powered wheels while scrubbing the window clean with felt pads.
The team was coached by mechanical engineering graduate student Andrew Siefert and advised by engineering professor Clark Radcliffe.
