Design Process
We generate ideas by exploring creative solutions
and building on each other's suggestions. Through
1.Ideate collaborative discussions, we identify key concepts
and map out potential approaches to bring our
vision to life.

Once we refine our ideas from brainstorming, we

sketch them on a whiteboard. This helps visualize the
2.Sketch concepts and assess their compatibility with the
robot. We also note measurements and calculations
to guide prototype development.

We begin by prototyping with readily available parts,

refining our ideas collaboratively to enhance
3.Design functionality. Using Fusion 360 (CAD) for 3D modeling,
we iteratively adjust components, ensuring our design
achieves the highest level of precision and effectiveness.

We combine the best elements from various prototypes

to create a final, optimized design. This design is
meticulously modeled in Fusion 360, allowing us to
4.Build produce custom 3D-printed parts tailored to our needs.
Once assembled, we conduct thorough testing to ensure
seamless interaction with the robot.

We thoroughly test the design to evaluate its

performance, carefully comparing the results against
our initial sketches and plans. As a team, we analyze
5.Test its strengths, pinpoint weaknesses, and engage in
detailed discussions to determine specific areas that
need improvement for enhanced functionality.

We refine our design through multiple iterations to

improve simplicity, reliability, and versatility. This
6.Iterate lengthy process involves repeated adjustments until
satisfied, after which we finalize and integrate the
CAD design in Fusion 360.

“Repetition is the mother of learning, the father of action,

which makes it the architect of accomplishment.”
