17. Machine design

This week I will:

  • Plan and make a machine. Document the group project and my individual contribution (group project)

Results

  • Refined:

  • Fabbed my first Servo Board on May 7, 2019

  • Stuffed Servo Board, programmed, and tested on May 10, 2019

  • Video

  • The C code provided by Neil worked, but I did not figure out how to tweak it to play our song. After 5 days, I decided to assemble my work to make a presentation.

  • Reconstructed the Arduino prototypes and tested while recording.

  • Rapid prototyped a drum to make sound with the Arduino servo circuit.

  • Production:

  • Since Neil said, “Where possible, make what you can in the lab (1:13:40), but it’s not a tight standard. The main goal is to link back to the work you did in the mechanical design week”; this week is actuation with automation. Although it is not what I wanted to turn in, it is something and a lot was learned.

  • I am assembling the results of my spiral development

  • End result: ATTiny44A Dual Servo Board learning from Neil’s success, but not ready to succeed, myself.
