Operation Pool Shark set out to design and build a mechanical device that would allow a wheelchair user with limited shoulder mobility to fully participate in the game of pool. Participants will learn about the process through which students from mechanical engineering and kinesiology collaborated to design and build the Pool Shark. As part of the presentation the client will discuss his participation in the project and talk about his experience using the finished product.
