15. System Integration

Individual Assignment

  • Design and document the system integration for your final project

PCB Case

I decided to make a case for my PCB in Fusion 360 to help give it a finished product look and conceal the wires. Currently, my final PCB is not fully designed yet, so I made the case with parameters, so I can change the dimensions later.

Here are all the parameters I used:

I also wanted it to have a lid and since I am probably going to be including a lot of pin headers, I made some holes in the lid. I also made a hole for the power source to be plugged into the microcontroller.

Case

Back in CAD Week, I made a rough design for my game, and I am stil interested in making my final product look like this although the interior layout will need to be different.

I am still figuring out how I am going to make this case, but last year in Engineering 2, I made an infinity mirror, and I think the method of using the table saw for that worked well. Using the laser cutter is also a possiblity.

Reflection

This week gave me a lot to think about, but I think it will end up being beneficial for my final project. I will definitely be making modifications to my current designs, but I feel like I have a good starting point.
