In this class we will explore the potential of levers and cranes for kinetic machines
You can pull something with a string, but you can't push it.
That's common sense. And no computer knows it.
(Marvin Minsky)
Using a threads to transmit information:
Sliders are bars that connect transmit a motion by sliding back and forth
Levers are bars that transmit a motion by rotating around a hinge
Linkages are bars that are connected via hinges.
