Story

Final Product: All the pieces fit and work together, there is a substantial amount of storage now with the help of my organizer as well as the storage pieces fit on my dresser. Overall I am extremely pleased with how my final design came out.

Final Design on Rhino: These 5 images are screenshots from the final design plan before the blueprints are sent to the laser cutter. I have made many changes from my prelim sketch, but my final sketch reflects my final design more. The changes I have made are separating my organizer into three separate containers. Two have specific purposes but the main portion is multipurpose in nature. I also had to make the organizer smaller overall to make it useful in my room without taking up too much space. There were many small details that I noticed during the design process, such as a hole in the back of the speaker wall for the charger to be fed through the wall.

Final Sketch: After taking down the dimensions of my dresser, I sketched a more final sketch plan for where I want my design to go. With separate containers for my speaker and hot sauce, a wall to hang hats on and several cubbies within.

Proposal for final project:

Having a triple can provide some problems, but the problem I seem to run into the most is the need for space. With my toiletries, shoes, hats, and baseball equipment I do not have a general organization plan for my stuff. The idea I have in mind is to create an all purpose shelving system to go on top of my dresser so I can simply and effectively organize in my room. As well as minimizing space used on my desks and closet. The design is fixing a personal problem, as opposed to problems facing campus as a whole. Some constraints and difficulties I could envision is not building enough to hold majority of my stuff, and my product only being useful on paper and not in reality.

4th Industrial Revolution

The video describes the 4th Industrial Revolution as the new wave of automated technology, such as self driving cars and artificial intelligence. Digital, physical and biological worlds are being brought together in this new industrial revolution. It seems the scientists in this video goal is not for human benefit. But, instead to develop AI to a further stage than previously.

Rapid Prototyping Video

            The Ted Talk is presented by Tom Chi who worked on projects with Google glass, and self-driving cars. Chi asks the audience how long they believed the Google glass prototype took to make. Some responses believed it could have taken more than a year, where Chi says the prototype took only a day. And had a crude sketch describing a prototype with simple materials. Chi includes his own rules for prototyping how experiencing the prototype is more important than having a well built one. For our phone stand design we will use the advice that the prototype should be for use first and should not be too extensive.
