Assignments

17 - Invention, Intellectual Property, and Income

This is the last week before I present the final project, I already have a slide and video proposal of my project.

16 - Applications and Implications

Propose a final project masterpiece that integrates the range of units covered, answering:

15 - Wildcard Week

This week I went to ESNE (Madrid) to learn about a digital textile manufacturing process and much more.

14 - Interface and Application Programming

This week we have worked in different programming languages to visually represent and interact with our projects.

13 - Networking and communications

This week, we will learn how to program communication between devices. A network always has to contain more than two devices talking to each other.

12 - Input Devices

This week we have learned input devices. This week I have used temperature sensors, CO2, accelerometer, barometer….

11 - Mechanical & machine design

Last weekend, from April 1 to 3, we moved to the Fab Lab in León to carry out our group practice, and manufacture the HILO Spinning Machine.

10 - Output devices

This week we have learned output devices, or how to interact with the outside from our devices. Leds, screens, motors…

9 - Molding and casting

This week we have dedicated it to molding and casting. I made a small keychain for the promotion of the buoy.

8 - Embedded Programming

This week we have learned about embedded programming and discovered new microcontrollers. For my final project I think I’ll use the SAMD21E.

7 - Computer-Controlled Machining

This week we have learned to prepare our ideas in designs to manufacture with the CNC.

6 - Electronics Design

Components, circuits, lab equipment… we make our first pcb and program it.

5 - 3D Scanning and Printing

This week we add to 3d design with manufacturing with 3D printing and scanning.

4 - Electronics production

This week we start working with electronics. We learn to manufacture our PCBs and solder with SMD components.

3 - Computer-controlled cutting

This week I have visited the Fab Lab León for the first time, and I have worked with cutting machines; laser cutters and vinyl cutters, and I’ve learned how to...

2 - Computer-Aided Design

Design is the basis for digital fabrication. This week we discover the main 2D and 3D design tools.

1B - Principles and Practices

This week we have defined our final project. Telemetry of lake conditions.

1A - Project Management

Project management with git is powerful for documenting progress during Fab Academy. For this we will make a web page, which we will update with our progress.
