Students may:
1. Deconstruct and analyze an everyday product/object/mechanism such as a blender, game controller, stapler, etc. Create a 3d digital model and technical drawings of the object. Create a physical model - hand constructed or digitally fabricated (3d printed, CNC, lasercut/engraved). Research and history of the product must be included as well as other examples/precedent studies. Define the user or target group. 2. Create or improve upon a product design. Create a 3d digital model and technical drawings of the object. Create a physical model - hand constructed or digitally fabricated (3d printed, CNC, lasercut/engraved). Research and history of the product must be included as well as other examples/precedent studies. Define the user or target group. 3. Create or improve upon a package design. Create a 3d digital model and technical drawings of the object. Create a physical model - hand constructed or digitally fabricated (3d printed, CNC, lasercut/engraved). Research and history of the product must be included as well as other examples/precedent studies. Define the user or target group. Students divided into 5 Teams in order to figure out how to recreate a dash robot: CAD, Mechanical, Electrical, Assembly/Fabrication & Documentation/Presentation. Original robot image below: Progress so far: Students lasercut the body, created 3d printed gears for the engine, and connected the arduino unit to motors and gears. Students had 1 class period and 1 sheet of chipboard to design the most outrageous wearable hat. Themes could focus on the 50 year anniversary or could be open-ended. Click on the links below for more information on the process designers use in product or industrial design.
Students have finalized their product designs. Final drawings and models have been created to present to the class today and tomorrow. Students have posted on their blogs their final designs.
Students used a hot wire foam cutter, a heat gun to thermoform laser cut polystyrene plastic as well as the 3-axis CNC. We also had Mr. White visit who works in the CNC and Heating & Air Building Construction Industry. He met with some students and explained how the computer and digital fabrication skills they are learning in class are highly sought after in today's job market. Particularly the use of CAD and CNC. Great news!
This week we tackle a product design project inspired by a university industrial design studio.2/25/2016 Students are researching symbiotic relationships and building 3 abstract models that represent the interactive qualities of mutualism, commensalism, parasitism or competition. Rather than form following function - Forms created will evolve into functional designs that reflect aspects of the original researched relationship but transferred to the relationship between product and human user.
