Helping Our School One Prototype At A Time

This unit in Rapid Prototyping, we learned about Riemann Sums, Delta and Cartesians 3D printers and the advancement of 3d printers. A Delta 3D printer is a printer that has a pyramid-like shape with three arms and Cartesian 3D printers are cubes that have 3 dimensions (x,y, and z).  My favorite FE during this unit was going to the Museum of Science and Industry, I hadn't been to that museum in a while and it brought back a lot of memories. Not only did the museum make me feel nostalgic, it related to what we were learning about 3D printers, technology, and design in Rapid Prototyping.  The purpose of this AP was to prototype something that would help our school. We worked with a partner and created 3 different prototypes: we created a clay version, 3D printed and cardboard prototype. I am very happy with the results of my final AP for this unit. Below is my slideshow, enjoy!
