  3D printing In this blog, we are going to go through what we did for the 3D printing activity. Documentation of design in Fusion 360 and 3D print of object Cura setting used for printing the object. Why the item made could not be easily made subtractively. Original design files Pictures and videos of printing process and objects. Reflection on activity Documentation of design in Fusion 360 and 3D print of objects For my 3D object, I intend to design a wheel which looks similar to the picture below. I wanted to try designing something simple yet unique as I have never designed something circular before and I want to venture out of my comfort zone. The design is also parametric which allows the size of the wheel to be adjusted to what you prefer most. I found a video online and followed the instructions, adding my own twist to some of the parts to make it unique to me. The link to the video can be found here   Step 1 The first step is to create parameters and set the values fo...

  Arduino Programming   For the Arduino Programming blog entry, we are mainly going to talk about this few points below Documentation of programmed arduino boards and explaining the program codes used Documented what I have learned from interfacing an input device to arduino board Documented what I have learned from interfacing an output device to arduino board Explained the problems faces and how I fixed them Short video of th execute program work Reflection on arduino programming Introduction to Arduino and Maker Uno Board Arudino is an open source platform which uses easy-to-use hardware and software to build electronics projects. It was made in mind to be more accessible to people of other professions and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments. There are many type of arduino variants as each board fits a different purpose/need and even SP have their own variant of the arduino board. Figure 1:Maker Uno Board The figure above is a Maker Uno Board t...
