I designed, sourced, programmed, and assembled off-the-shelf components to create a water cycling system to validate a product at a hydroponics startup I worked at over the summer of 2022.
Arduino, peristatic pump, and power supply unit wired and soldered together
3D printed fixtures secure electronics for measuring water level and siphoning water
I created back panel mounts that would hold elbow connectors I sourced, making sure to incorporate positive draft angles for injection molding and snap fit connections to secure the nozzle for refilling the growing trays.
