In the reverse Engineering project we were tasked to create a sketch of an object of our choice. This sketch wasn't any sketch though it was an exploded view sketch.
My object was a RC hot wheels remote controller. I chose this object because I had broken the original car and had no use for the controller, I also thought it had a good amount of physical parts and electrical parts form me to dig into and research
This is my second attempt at creating a technical sketch for the remote control It features a top and bottom view of the three stages that make up the controller. Conveniently to the side of each drawing are labels of each identifiable component and a quick description of what it dose.
The controller had a cover with hole for each of the switches and dials, a mother board sandwiched between the two plastic halves, and a bottom with an ergonomic shape to fit the hand of whoever's holding it.
This portion of the paper goes father in-depth into what computer components are used to make it function, in other words the brain. From what I understand power is send throughout the board from the battery pack being regulated by various resistors and capacitors, at some point the signals pass through the main logic gates, this is the lock black square in the middle. The inputs from the buttons and potentiometers. Get sent to this board and transferred to the antenna where the signal is sent to the mini car.
I thought this project was very helpful in preparing me for more serious projects in the future. This solid baseline knowledge of the different types of drawing, when one is more useful than the other, and when to use each one is very important. I thought that the preparation for this project was perfect, Having use analysis someone's professional sketch and even critique it, to having us make a very easy bicycle sketch. Prepared me enough to be able to make a conceptual sketch I feel conveys enough information while also being nice and neat.
