20. Project development

Work to be done

.Evalute the project plan.

.Apply time managment techniques.

.Summarise and communicate the essence of your project development.

What is the dealine ? how much time do I have left ?

The deadline is the 13th of june, 2022, so i have 18 more days left to finish my project. To get the project functioning and fabricated as one product that we set out to make.

What tasks have been completed, and what tasks remain?

.I have made the final outlook of the gate door and how it is fixed.

.I have gathered all materials and electronic components needed for the gate door.

.I have all all lasser cutted some components as test pieces.

.I have 3D designed file and are ready milled in CNC machine.

The remaining thing is to finalise the programing and interface of circuit to connect input and output which I will use for the final project.

How will I complete the remaining tasks on time?

I have made a checklist for each day to keep track of my progress. Also I’m spending more time in the lab theses days, sometimes working overnight. Also in order to save time.

This is the list of the schedule I will follow to finish the project on time.

Task schedule Date Process
SolidWorks Design 30-May Computer-aided design
PCB Design 3-june Electronic Design
Laser cutting 7-june Computer-controlled Cutting
ShopBot cutting 10-june Computer-Controlled Machine
Embedded Programming 27-june Embedded Programming
Data collection 29-june Interface and Application
running motor 30-june Input Devices

What has worked?

.The Laser cutter and CNC machine printed materials are working just fine.

.The design of the gate door is a success.

.The acrylic rings I am using as a bearing ,rack and pinion is functioning perfectly

What hasn’t?

.The application Development in smart phone was not successful.

.Motor movements is not done alright.

What have you learned?

I don’t know if I can answer this question correctly because there is no limit to things I learned from Fablab. I learned a lot about electronics. Its production and programming. I learned to use the 3D design,Laser cutter, CNC Machine tools a lot and also i to fabricate them. Also I with the global network I was introduced to lot of new technologies around the world. Fablab is the best decision of my life. I have changed a lot. My perspective towards digital fabrication has really changed. I am thankful to all the members of this community.
