MPOWRD Fall Week 10: Preparation for Senior Design Review

lawrence.hipolito Project Achievements, 2016-2017 Manual Patient Operated Wheelchair Rehabilitation Device

This week, we prepared for our senior design review. We attended the workshop held by the School of Engineering where we received feedback on our poster. The reviewers had a chart, ranking topics that needed to be on the poster by level of importance. The background, goals and innovation were the most important parts of the poster.

We also spent the time to discuss what questions we could get asked during the design review:
How many other designs do you have? What sets this design apart from the others?
What is your manufacturing plan?
What was your greatest challenge in creating your design?

Overall, our goal this fall quarter was to create an initial cardboard prototype and CAD design. Now that this step is completed, we plan to develop the manufacturing plan and create a test prototype next quarter.
