From the previous semester, we have developed technical performance measures that we believed we the most crucial for the success of our final design. Today, I will be posting the updated table now that allows for one to see how… Read More
Sensors have been calibrated and are now on the bat handle!
We were able to properly calibrate our sensors and test their accuracy by using test weights. We are making progress towards our next prototype by placing the sensors on the bat handle and are able to get various pressure readings… Read More
Second Iteration of Hardware Enclosure
Completing the design process involves creating multiple iterations of a design. Taking this advice, we created the second design of our hardware enclosure. It is shaped similar to a bat weight so it is something that the baseball players are… Read More
The Assembly Process Begins
This week we have made some great advances towards our next prototype! We finished calibrating the sensors that we plan to use as well as began working on the bluetooth module that will send the data collected back to the… Read More
Using CAD to create a 3D printed model
For part of our design, we have decided to print an enclosure that will hold the vast majority of the hardware for this design! After some time, our mechanical engineer Dakota, developed the first iteration of the enclosure in CAD!… Read More
QRB1
We quickly got back to work as the semester began moving as though we never left. By the third week of school, we presented our QRB1 presentation which laid out how we planned to go about the semester. We explained… Read More
A New year, a new start
After finishing the fall semester and ending one of the most challenging years many of us have had to face in a long time, we also had to say good bye to two of our team members who parted from… Read More
System Level Design Review
This week our team wrapped up the semester by presenting our final design to the rest of the students and faculty in IPPD. This semester has been tough as our team met virtually from beginning to the end. From this… Read More
System Level Design Review Preparation
This past week the team has worked on the System Level Design Review (SLDR) report and presentation. A rough draft of the report was made, and a presentation for the report was presented to fellow peers and coaches. The peers… Read More
Preparing for our First Prototype Inspection Day
Prototype Inspection Day is next Tuesday (11/17). We have been preparing for it for 3 weeks. As our project is to design and build a device able to map handgrip pressure. We built a prototype able to demonstrate the technology… Read More
