"How far is too far?" As an engineer, I say this is normal. I have spreadsheets at work that took days to put together that automate sections of my job. Do they make up for the time they cost to make? Eventually, yes. Just like how automating your shiny catching. It's also your effort even though it's automated, as you are the one who designed and assembled everything. The design and assembly time were merely investments that pay themselves off in due time. Always work smarter, not harder.

​@@RasMatHam02 Not really Honestly I wouldn't have used the large motor he did as you really don't need it and it's part of the reason it's so loud. I'd have used the M motor with either no gearing (gear wheels the same on both ends) , or a gear reduction (smaller gear on the motor axel, larger gear on the other side) this would have put less strain on the motor producing less noise and in general and the m motors run quieter on top of that. Since the build in the video was hitting about 4-5 time too fast, it should have still worked. Another thing he could have done was shimmed the bottom of the contraption with some plates (1/3 the height of a brick) so t was not lifting it's self and only pressing the button, that may be a little difficult though. Building a sound dampening shroud out of bricks to go over it should have helped too. This is all from my experience of playing with the old technic motors. note: you get more torque from the gear reduction, but that's not useful in this application. (Edit: Stupid Keyboard)

When I was in school, we made a bomb disposal robot using a micro controller that included 4 motors for wheels and 5 motors for a PRR arm with a rotating 3d printed rack and pinion end-effector. We did reverse kinematics and the whole nine yards to pre-program desired positions with limit switches to find zero positions. Didn't splice voltage outputs. Hooked everything up to a PS4 controller. Was just a class project, not thesis or anything. So much you can do to improve a design with a micro-controller, hard to narrow down your efforts into a nice masters thesis. My suggestion, find a simple project off the internet and do it with an improvement based on whatever field you are in.
