Unleash your stories – Hayden Moore
Hayden Moore, was one of the original creative technologists at Unleash Space, has created an automatic wire-cutter using materials and equipment available in the Maker Space.
Hayden’s story
In his final year of a BSc in Computer Science, Hayden was a creative technologist at Unleash Space, where he played a role in helping set up the Maker Space, as well as conducting training sessions and running workshops. With a passion for electronics, programming, and fabrication, Hayden found Unleash Space the perfect place for making things.
Unleash Space has also helped Hayden in his career pursuits. While working one day at Unleash Space, he was approached by Spire Construction R&D, a company that was looking for a product developer. They were impressed by his innovative projects and offered Hayden a job. He is now working there as an engineering technologist, where he innovates, makes products, writes business cases, develops code, electronics and 3D models, and plays around with interesting ideas.
Hayden also co-founded Shwoop, a start-up focused on creating interactive advertising technology and “turning cities into playgrounds”.
Hayden has enjoyed some amazing opportunities, gained access to world-class technology, landed a great job and joined a start-up – all because he decided to walk in the front door of Unleash Space!
Hayden’s automatic wire-cutter sparked from another of Hayden’s projects, an LED periodic table currently on display at the Maker Space. This required hundreds of pieces of wire to be cut at exact lengths, an arduous task by hand, but by using the materials and equipment at Unleash Space, Hayden began creating an automatic wire-cutter to solve this problem.
The end result of this creative process is a machine that allows you to automatically cut wire at any length you desire. Hayden is really happy with how it turned out. It works perfectly and is much faster than expected!
