Hi! It's Karrie from formerly Vertabend. As my teammate Jordan put it in her fabulous pun, we've switched spines. Get it? From spinal cords to the spines of books? (I'm not going to be over this one for a long time, so just bear with me). So our Vertabend team has dismantled slightly--now it's just... Continue Reading →
This week, JetSet divided into two distinct teams, to better tackle our many requirements for the upcoming midterm presentation. The Biomed team, Anjali M. and Isha P., were responsible for creating our Powerpoint presentation; they also gathering photos and images from our blog posts to create a complementary visual display (read more about their adventures...

We are now re-entering the lovely world of 3D modeling. YAY! I am most defiantly struggling to remember how to use Autocad and SketchUp. It has taken my some time to remember how to dimension the components. I gave myself some time to just play around with the programming, and figure out what I'm doing.... Continue Reading →
Before the create and innovate phase, M.O.M has been in the process of ordering the supplies for the breast pump and also using AutoCad Inventor to produce a 3D model of the design layout. Since this phase in the project is about the engineering and biomedical students coming together, there is areas that students from... Continue Reading →
As you may already know that we have completed our design proposal. From finishing it we have got a lot of great feed back about what we needed to improve and what key information would really make out design and reality . Now M.O.M is on to bigger and better things and have now started... Continue Reading →
This week, as I rediscovered the joys of dimensioning, extruding, and constraining using a 3D modelling program called AutoCAD Inventor, I encountered two main annoyances which severely handicapped my ability to work effectively. For one thing, using Inventor on a laptop computer was much harder than using a mouse and desktop. I don’t think there’s... Continue Reading →
Last week, Vertabend and everyone else in StarPathDesign began OHSA training. As we continue our training for certification, we've begun the prototyping process. It's amazing to think that by the end of this year, we will have a (hopefully) working model of our neck pillow innovation! To do this, our group has split along... Continue Reading →
