well.
end of the semester. Now that studio is psuedo over, I have to do everything else.
LCC is the most noteworthy. But this is a design blog, and honestly, no one wants to read about LCC. BORING!
but I do have this link for you to consider…
Design Awards
pretty cool, huh?
These are pictures of my project. Pretty sweet. Basically its a clip that sends out your GPS signal so that you can let people track you (It can be turned off, of course). In an emergency, it will also notify the police.
The clip is more of a backup, because a lot of times, cell phones get stolen along with wallets, meaning that vicitms can’t call for help when they are feeling their most helpless and vulnerable.
so. there it is. Time to go start the Materials project.
this could be fun…
oh, and 1 more thing:
The final Materials project (30% of the final grade) must include:
* Filled-in Excel spreadsheet – make the cells big enough to hold all your text!
* DFA spreadsheet for the two plastic, two metal, and one purchased parts in your project.
* Exploded view of your product showing how the key parts fit together, in 16″x16″x300dpi PDF format.
* Additional views as necessary to show the important design details of your key parts, in the same format.
* Front page of similar patent, with images.
* Data sheet for purchased part.
