dc.description.abstract | This project was motivated by Professor Martin Strauss, a University of Michigan Math and Computer Science professor. Professor Strauss desired an environmental and residential friendly snow removal device that can be easily attached to his bicycle and clear snow as he rides. The project addresses the challenge of reducing carbon emissions and noise produced by large scale commercial snow blowers. While the concept of a human powered snow removal device is not new, there are no devices available on the market that achieve this goal. Through research, the team found several models of human powered snow removal devices but none of these designs have been patented or commercialized. | en_US |
