&lt;h2 id=&#34;goal&#34;&gt;Goal&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Create a GUI that allows users to visualize the mechanism of a knee that uses a simple 4 bar mechanism design. The programs allows for changing of the 2 input and output links, visualizing of sitting, midswing, and standing positions, animation, view of one stride, video and photo exporting, and more. The final code is 1200 lines of code and broken into 12 functions.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;h2 id=&#34;project-goal&#34;&gt;Project Goal&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Create a mechanism that is able to move a ball through 3 randomly given precision points that can be mounted onto a pegboard. The mechansim must recieve a ball from the previous group and transfer it to the next group.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2 id=&#34;technical-information&#34;&gt;Technical Information&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The mechanism is a motion generator because it not only moves through 3 specific points, but the dyad at the tip of the mechanism has to only rotate a certain amount before the golfball falls out.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
