Principles and Practices
Plan and sketch a potential final project.
Here, you can find the documentation of all the activities and tasks I will engage with over the next 20 weeks.
we document what we did, how we did it, what we learnt, the challenges we faced and how we overcame those.
Project Management
Follow a Git tutorial. Build a Documentation Website.
Computer-Aided Design
Learn various ways of CAD modelling, and produce a model of a possible final project.
Computer-Controlled Cutting
Design a Parametric Press-Fit Construction Kit.
Electronics Production
Mill and stuff an In-Circuit Programmer, and test it.
3D Printing & Scanning
Design and 3D print an object that could not be made subtractively. 3D scan an object and print it.
Electronics Design
Redraw an Echo Hello-World Board, adding a button and LED. Design it according to the design rules, make it and test it.
Computer-Controlled Machining
Make Something BIG.
Embedded Programming
Read a microcontroller data sheet.
Program your board to do something, using different programming languages and programming environments.
Input Devices
Design a microcontroller board and test it. Add a sensor and read it.
Applications and Implications
Propose a final project masterpiece that integrates the range of units covered.
Output Devices
Add an output device to a microcontroller board you've designed, and program it to do something.
Interface and Application Programming
Write an application that interfaces a user with an input &/or output device that you made.
Invention, Intellectual Property and Income
Develop a plan for the dissemination of your final project.
Networking and Communications
Design, build, and connect wired or wireless node(s) with network or bus addresses.
Molding and Casting
Design a mold around the stock and tooling that you'll be using, mill it (rough cut+3-axis finishing), and use it to cast parts.
Wildcard
Design and produce something with a digital fabrication process not covered in another assignment.
Machine & Mechanical Design
Design a machine that includes mechanism + actuation + automation.
Final Project Development
Describe the process of developing a final project.
Final Project
Everything about the Rubik's Cubed machine.
