20. Project Presentations¶
Our Homework this week:¶
Our assignment this week is to:
Document a final project masterpiece that integrates the range of units covered, answering:
- What does it do?
- Who’s done what beforehand?
- What did you design?
- What materials and components were used?
- Where did they come from?
- How much did they cost?
- What parts and systems were made?
- What processes were used?
- What questions were answered?
- What worked? What didn’t?
- How was it evaluated?
-
What are the implications?
-
Prepare a summary slide and a one minute video showing its conception, construction, and operation. Your project should incorporate 2D and 3D design, additive and subtractive fabrication processes, electronics design and production, embedded microcontroller interfacing and programming, system integration and packaging.
-
Where possible, you should make rather than buy the parts of your project. Projects can be separate or joint, but need to show individual mastery of the skills, and be independently operable. Present your final project, weekly and group assignments, and documentation.
Learning outcomes¶
- Create your own integrated design
- Demonstrate 2D & 3D modelling capabilities applied to your own designs
- Select and apply appropriate additive and subtractive techniques
- Demonstrate competence in design, fabrication and programming of your own fabbed microcontroller PCB, including an input & output device
Have you answered these questions?¶
- Made your slide> 1920 x 1080 pixels with your name, project name, Fab Lab name, a photo/render/sketch of your project, a brief description of what your project is/does
- Made a ~1 minute (10MB/1080p) video of you explaining your project
- Made a separate Final Project page that briefly summarises your project
- Included the BOM (Bill of Materials) for your project
- Linked from this page to any weeks that you worked on your final project
- Linked to your presentation.png and presentation.mp4
- Included all of your original design files in the archive (2D & 3D, board files & code). - - No external hosting of final project files - discuss file sizes with your instructor
- Included the license you chose
- Acknowledged work done by others

Code Example¶
Use the three backticks to separate code.
// the setup function runs once when you press reset or power the board
void setup() {
// initialize digital pin LED_BUILTIN as an output.
pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
}
// the loop function runs over and over again forever
void loop() {
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH); // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
delay(1000); // wait for a second
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW); // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
delay(1000); // wait for a second
}
