The Senior Project Day Presentation is a virtual presentation of our Final Design Review and includes an overview of the project and objectives, our final design and its key components, how we met all our objectives, the main analysis in our project and its results, the final part suggestions for the real world design torsion spring, motor, and gearbox, and the final wheelchair functional requirements. It also includes videos of our CAD animation, desktop model and powered ramp model.Â
The Final Design Review Presentation includes an overview of the project and objectives, our final design and its key components, how we met all our objectives, the main analysis in our project and its results, the final part suggestions for the real world design torsion spring, motor, and gearbox, and the final wheelchair functional requirements.
Week 10's presentation includes an overview of the project and objectives, it also includes analysis and results of our project, the final parts suggestions and the final wheelchair functional requirementsÂ
Week 9's updates include an updated foldable ramp analysis with minimum motor torque requirements due to a maximized torsion spring, continued sensor research, images and information from the first Build Day, CAD updates, and the beginning of the wheelchair functional requirements.Â
The Preliminary Design Review Presentation includes an updated design overview and plan, major components of our design and an updated analysis, as well as next steps moving into the rest of Week 8.
Week 7's updates include an updated analysis, discussion of safety sensors, CAD updates, build day plans, and material selections.
Week 6's updates include a brief initial overview of the foldable ramp's 3-bar linkage mechanism, and early parts options.
The Proof of Concept Presentation contains an initial torsion spring analysis, the inclusion of the mini stationary ramp, videos of what industry standard foldable ramp our design is based off of, and initial motor and gearbox research and calculations.
Week 4's updates include initial research on sensors and torsion springs, preliminary gearbox and motor calculations and research, CAD updates, and plans moving forward.
Week 3's updates include initial Tesla X car measurements in comparison to Scott, comparisons between ramp and lift models, initial concept drawings, plans, and power analyses, and our final design decision.
The Design Proposal Presentation includes our main project decisions like not modifying the structural integrity of the Tesla X, limiting our project scope to modifying the car rather than the car and Scott's wheelchair, moving forward with side door entry, and using a foldable ramp. It also has a Risk Reduction with 3D Printed models of Scott's wheelchair positions to further support design decisions, CAD models and videos of the interior car space Scott has to work with, and an initial proposed design.
Week 1's updates include an overall project background and description including objectives, 3 possible design plans moving forward, and liability concerns.
The Risk Reduction Presentation includes a project background and overview, the project's high risk areas, a risk reduction performed with mini clay wheelchair models and a 1:18 scale Tesla Model X, and the 3 possible design routes we could take moving forward.
Winter Quarter Week 9's updates include internal measurements of the Tesla Model Y, updates from the meeting with Sean from GoldenBoy Mobility, EZ Lock research, and plans for the risk reduction.
The Problem Definition Presentation includes an overall background and objectives of the project, potential risk areas, information about the 4 Tesla models, and our future project plans.
