Hello! Greetings from everyone apart of Comfort4U! Here's a quick update of how my part of the team have been doing. Thus far we've completed our prototype and have begun new projects as asked from the head honchos of Comfort4U. We've been assigned with the job of creating a new google sketchup and a brochure/instructional... Continue Reading →
This week, our new Trailer Automation team turned in our second round of deliverables, including Erin and Chloe’s fully debugged code for four of our five sensors and my finalized SketchUp layouts. For my part, I created two maps which detail the rough positions of each sensor, one floor and one ceiling view of the... Continue Reading →
Recently Amanda and I have been working on perfecting our g le sketch up. The engineering and biomedical girls have split up during class time. It is easier to focus on one task at a time if the group meets at the beginning of the class period. Mothers Do Matter has been having some communication... Continue Reading →
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 →
These past few days, Comfort4U has been focusing on our 3D model and final presentation. I am the only person in the engineering pathway in my group so by default I was put in charge of our Google Sketch up, little did my team know, I had no experience with Sketch up before this project....

Greetings! Over the past few days my team members and have seem to be struggling. We have come to realize that we have such little time to accomplish our goal. However we been trying to pick our materials for our first prototype. Although Ms.Miesner has mentioned to us that when creating our first prototype we... Continue Reading →
This whole week we have been working on materials and prototype design in Google Sketch-Up for our improved surgical mask. For our mask materials we decided we were going to have 3 filters, two buckle straps, elastic and a lot of mask molds to work with. Our first filter was a Universal Carbon pre-filter, the...

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 →
Last week JetSet completed the second leg of their journey towards creating a market-ready product. While the deadline for design proposals was pushed back to this coming Wednesday, JetSet used their time wisely and was ready to turn in their proposal last Thursday for five extra credit points (JetSet’s members are suckers for extra credit)....
