Week 1

Concept

Mosq comes from "Mosca" in Spanish, I added the "q" because it comes from the Quentorres board.

The reasons are indicated in the following list:

1. In our laboratory at the Universidad Cientifica del Sur, there are many flies, it is because of the proximity of the Peruvian Riding Club.

2. They tend to stop in many places, contaminating our workplace.

3. They have spoiled 3D prints, accessing the printing bed, extruder and other parts of our printer.

4. No matter how much we have fumigated, the flies come back, it is essential to avoid fumigations that mostly spoil the rails of our machines.

Design

About the materiality, the body will be printed in wood PLA, and it will be light, so that with the load of interior motors it will not weigh so much, the rotating blades will also be in PLA of similar conditions but different color, it is foreseen to use white color or similar in a very thin layer of printing to achieve flexibility.

In the same way we will try to make the body in different materials, such as resin and laser cut in 4mm Plywood.

Product Characteristics

What my machine will do exactly is to scare away flies within a radius of 2m from the position of the element, on the movements it will make:

1. Rotating blades movement: through a DC motor.

2. Speed control: According to the voltage, the speed will be controlled from the external faces of the device.

3. Interior sound control: It will contain a small interior speaker to emit inaudible noises to the human sense but annoying for the insects.

4. Power supply: It will have a rechargeable battery and also direct power supply from the body of the device, as well as an on/off switch.

Working on my Web site

To start working on my own website, I have helped me with the Academy class N°1, I leave the link here:

In this way to determine what I have to do is:

1. read, sign the student/instructor/lab agreements, and make commits in your repos, work through a git tutorial

2. build a personal site in the class archive describing you and your final project.

So, I started by downloading Visual Studio Code, Git and logging into Git Lab thanks to the logins that were sent by mail.

To start with my web, first I was watching a tutorial about HTML + CSS language.

Basics Concepts

The first design was easy to make in Photoshop, but when I converted it to Visual code for HTML, it was very complex, to the point that this web is my second attempt, despite the complexity, I managed to finish it. You can see the design and initial ideas of my first web.

Conecting Git

I used Visual Studio Code and git-scm. By the way, I had used Visual Studio IDE before and thought it was the same. It is not. To connect the cloud with my local repository I followed this video:

The steps I followed were:

1. I opened Visual Studio Code and opened a new window. Meanwhile, Git Bash was already running on my computer

2. I created a new folder in :C/Documents where my local repository

3. I cloned the cloud repository with the HTTPS key obtained from the GitLab website

4. I trasladate the files that I have previously been working on my local folder where the clone has been saved.

To link the local repository to the cloud, in the terminal window, I placed the commands git config --global user.name "my user name" and git config --global user.email "my email".

git config --global user.name "@maryori-vasquez"

git config --global user.email "mvasquezsan@cientifica.edu.pe"

5. I pressed commit and a window pop-up asked my password.

To upload the updates

The steps I followed were:

1. I used the code git add .

git add .

2. I used the code git commit -"git status"

git status

3. Press the "Commit" button, do not forget to put in the message the name with which we can define our information upload.

Assembling the design

The first design was easy to make in Photoshop, but when I converted it to Visual code for HTML, it was very complex, to the point that this web is my second attempt, despite the complexity, I managed to finish it. You can see the design and initial ideas of my first web.

The position Everything

In the incorrect place 5h of work in the button 1 Blockage happen

At this point with hours of experience in the field, my first blockage happened, the Weekly Assignments button was the most complex, it overlapped the image, the background and I couldn't do it anymore, waiting for my thoughts to calm down, finally it was achieved.

Finally, it works!

Or that's what I think 456 264

After detailing all the spaces of the web and uploading the images, it worked, it is important to have hours and hours of patience and above all the EAGER TO LEARN, because in the end it becomes a lot of fun.

My first mistake

The 404 error, first of all, I thought it was some of my local files, I did all the upload correctly with cloning, but I still got this unknown path, my solution? Work all over again and download the HTML templates and start from there...

The Template link

The .gitlab-ci.yml

Being objective, this was my fault, the error was born from this file, at the moment of downloading and uploading it to Repo, I edited it, changing the configuration to HTML, I shouldn't have done it, after realizing it in about 3 hours, I uploaded it again and it worked!!!! Here is the next problem.

Watch this, here is the solution

I can't commit

I forgot something 456 264

Connection in Git? Done, Cloning? Done, Complete files? Done. I didn't know I was missing something, as the commit button never lit up, my sync was finished, but never uploaded, help came....

A very useful reunion

Or that's what I think 456 264

In a meeting with my instructors, we couldn't find the problem, we thought it was my files, the weight or maybe some other logical order issue, we went to the extreme of changing to a new template and starting from scratch (which I saw unnecessary at this point), we kept forgetting something.

We solved it!

We were forgetting the .git add . which, according to the explanation of our instructors, is the way git receives the changes you have made manually in Visual Studio Code, all that was left was to Commit, wait and go!
