Profile picture

I'm Will C. Forte, a mechanical engineer and roboticist.

Welcome to my self-coded project site!

I study at Rutgers Univ., where I am a member of the Robotics, Automation, & Mechatronics Lab under Jingang Yi.

Featured Project: DIY 12-Motor Quadruped

Quadruped Prototype

The summer after junior year of HS, I built a low-cost, 12-motor quadrupedal robot intended to increase the accessibility of advanced robotics to educators and students already participating in FTC Robotics.

Cuff-Link: An Electromyographic Input Device

CuffLink Prototype

The Cuff-Link™ allows amputees and those suffering from nerve damage to control a computer using nothing but the muscles in their arm. A similar design cost Meta $500 million. It cost us $150.

We presented the project in front of a crowd of 200+ at the Academy of Math, Science, & Engineering 2024 Showcase.

TUBAA: Aeroacoustic Analysis of the MIT Toroidal Propeller

CFD simulation of toroidal propeller

I was the CFD lead of a large undergraduate research project in which we compared the aeroacoustics of the MIT Lincoln Lab toroidal propeller against traditional alternatives using ANSYS Fluent and FFT spectra. We are planning to submit the manuscript for conference publication.
