This is an angled picture of the bottom of my shape showing the flat platform where it would sit
This is a picture of the front of my pentagon and the lights
This is the inside of my pentagon. This is where the lights were inserted and where the bread board is sitting.
This drawing shows the angle of the triangle part of my pentagon. It also shows what angle I sanded the bottom of my pieces to.
This is a video of my LED's working and it shows the 3 different patterns that are programmed.

We do sketching in Engineering to make sure that we know how to draw out a model of a product we are making.
This is my model for the sound amplification project. This drawing is just showing how I the outcome of the speaker should look.
The purpose of the 3D prototyping process is to show how your model would look when produced. This is important so we can make sure that our prototype is measured right and is the size we want it to be. We were not able to physically make the speaker due to Corona virus and schools being closed during this time. CAD is the next best option to show us how our model would look if it was made. We evaluate and test our prototypes to make sure it meets any constraints that our teacher has put in place for the design. If we were at the school building, we would be making the wooden version of our design instead of using the CAD models.
This project represents STEAM. The physics of the amplifier represents the science aspect. Using tinker CAD to make our model is part of the technology we used. Our teacher 3D prints our models, since we are not able to and that represents the engineering aspect. We also had to draw a one point perspective of how we expect our model to look and that is apart of the arts. Lastly, we had to calculate the volume of our prototype and and make sure it fits within the constraint of 150 cubic inches, which is the mathematics aspect.
