On Tuesday, we met with Navid and were given some help with the PCB design and circuitry:
– We will be using extensions for the LCD Screen and other components to have better placement in the circuitry box
– Possible new programs and ways to design the circuit on the PCB board
We also got to meet with a professional mechanical engineer who looked over our design and gave us many ideas.
We took the Machine Shop tutorial on Wednesday and got some more feedback regarding our design. We have decided to make the base out of wood and have a sheet of steel on top of it.
We completed the platform design on Solidwork and will be obtaining the materials this weekend and possibly finish building it by the end of next week.
The addendum is finalized and has been sent.
The tasks for this weekend have been assigned:
Maria will be buying the wood and get it cut to size for the platform
Oscar will be finalizing the base design
Michael will be drawing the enclosures for the circuits
Mustafa and Weng Fei will be making the draft schematics in Altium
