Project 3, a revamped projet 2
We completed project 3 and overall it was successful. There are still a couple technical issues that could be resolved but for the time allotted i feel extremely proud of what Ben, Kevin, Nick and I have created. Attached our some photos of the work as well as the blogsite used to upload images too. More photos will be added as well as the powerpoint in the next few days.
Project 3, a revamped projet 2
For project three we were told to add onto our second project tom make it a more complete piece, as well as adding a powerpoint to explain the work. Based on our critique we are going to address the issue of design on our box with a lot of attention going to the hinges, which many people viewed as ugly, we are going to be adding a web site to store images taken from a camera we are installing in the piece, also the drawing surface and drawing materials will be revamped and also little technical issues will be addressed.
Project 2 explanation
As you can tell form the photos our project consists of a printer, a back pack, an arduino, a photosensor, and various structural components. The piece works as follows; the viewer draws a picture on the 5x7 sheets of paper using the pencils provided, then they place the paper in the top slot of the stained wood box, the sensor is activated which triggers the arduino and the motors which control the printer, the printer then pulls the drawing through and at the same time spits a drawing out. The arduino is used to control the timing of the motors so that the printer takes and feeds only one piece of paper. Thanks Nick, without him as an engineer i don't believe this project would have been successful.
